    Some early odds out for Khan-Judah in the U.K

    some places like bet365 & williamhill are offering odds for the fight already, do you think this is how the odds should start from?

    These odds are just to win the fight as KO/TKO, Draw odds aren't out yet.

    Amir Khan is 1/6 which in the U.S format would be -$600

    Zab Judah is 4/1 which in the U.S format would be +$400

    Suprised to see how much of a heavy favourite Khan is.

    DAMN, judah should be +175-+225 tops. Khan should be -200ish.

      i'm also surprised to see what a heavy favorite the bookies are making khan

      i hope this gives judah more motivation to train hard and follow pernell's lead when it comes to making a disciplined game plan. perhaps khan's reach and speed will be too much for zab- though zab certainly does have power.

        The bookies know that in the UK there will be huge money wagered on a Khan win and have altered the odds to cover losses when he does win. That is why the odds are not quite right.This often happens in the UK when a media darling takes on a good fighter not really recognised by the UK public. A good example of this was Benn/Watson. The odds were heavy in Benn's favour so much so I was tempted to place a big bet on Watson which really worked out well for me.

          It is hard to bet on Zab, he is too unreliable to put money on decent price though, I bet it goes higher~
