Johnson outruns Kurt Busch for New Hampshire win

Autoracing Betting Lines

06/27/2010 - Loudon, NH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Jimmie Johnson passed Kurt Busch for the lead with less than two laps remaining to win Sunday's Lenox Industrial Tools 301 at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.

Johnson, who also won last weekend's road-course race at Sonoma, CA, lost the lead to Busch with eight laps to go when Busch made a bump and run move on the four-time defending Sprint Cup Series champion. Johnson, though, came storming back and reclaimed the top position for good with a lap and a half remaining.

Tony Stewart passed Busch on the final lap to finish second, while Busch ended up third. Jeff Gordon and points leader Kevin Harvick rounded out the top- five.

Johnson has now won five races this season, which places him in a tie with Denny Hamlin for most victories in the series. Hamlin finished 14th.

With the win, Johnson moved to within 105 points of Harvick.

Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s eighth-place finish put him just three points behind 12th-place Carl Edwards, who finished 25th, as nine races remain before the championship Chase begins in September at New Hampshire.

Mayweather picked to beat De La Hoya
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA -- Golden Boy Oscar De La Hoya and his rival Floyd Mayweather Jr. arrived at the MGM Grand here Wednesday amid the pomp and pandemonium befitting two of the biggest stars in the sport who are about to duke it out for the WBC super welterweight crown this Saturday (Sunday in Manila).

As of Wednesday, MySportsbook.com closed its book with Mayweather a favorite to defeat De La Hoya at -170 (a $100 bet wins $70), while De La Hoya is a +140 underdog (a $100 bet wins $140).

Mayweather arrived at about 11:30 a.m. on a big truck with his face and a big "World's Best Pound-for-Pound" sign scribbled across the vehicle. He was accompanied by his entourage made up of rappers and his training team.

A crowd of close to 3,000 eager fans packed the MGM Grand lobby, with their cameras in tow, all trying to vie for position to get a good angle at Mayweather, who is acknowledged as the world's best fighter pound-for-pound.

Eric Gomez, Golden Boy Promotions vice-president, described the fan turnout as "amazing" and swore he had never seen anything quite like this event.

"The crowd was fantastic. Everybody was just too eager to see the two fighters," said ALA manager Michael Aldeguer, who was among those who waited at the lobby together with his ward Rey "Boom Boom" Bautista and AJ Banal.

De La Hoya made his own grand entrance at the hotel lobby at around 12:30 p.m. accompanied by GBP chief executive officer Richard Schaefer and trainer Freddie Roach.

The same group of fans who trooped to see Mayweather also lingered around to get a close look at De La Hoya, who has been secretly working out at a Las Vegas gym for days after arriving from his main training camp in Puerto Rico.

The golden boy then took part in a closed-door afternoon workout with Bautista and Banal. The two, along with Aldeguer and wife Christine, as well as an HBO crew were the only ones allowed inside the gym.

De La Hoya and Mayweather take part in today's final press conference before the official weigh-in this Friday.

Ring Magazine, the acknowledged bible of boxing, reported in its June 2007 issue that 12 out of 20 boxing experts it interviewed have favored Mayweather to defeat De la Hoya, with only 8 favoring the latter.

But Filipino ring icon Manny Pacquiao said in a recent interview with The Freeman's Emmanuel Villaruel that De La Hoya will win by unanimous decision over Mayweather.
