One person who benefitted from Broncos safety Aqib Talib returning an interception 22 yards for a touchdown with 15 seconds remaining in Sunday's game against the Jets was Floyd Mayweather.
The boxer had bet $815,000 to win $600,000 on Denver minus-7.5 against New York.
In fact, 95 percent of the bets taken in Vegas on that game were on the Broncos.
With Denver up 24-17, the Jets had a third-and-14 from their 5-yard line. Quarterback Geno Smith passed to the right side, but was picked off by Talib, who opted to run toward the end zone instead of taking a knee to end the game."I kicked a hole in the wall. I'll leave it as a reminder of my feelings toward Geno Smith," MGM vice president of race and sports, Jay Rood told ESPN.com.
