    Below are betting odds from sky in the UK's website....some surprising stuff there!! Particularly Ward as the outsider and 4/1 on an American winning it!!

    Kessler 9/4
    froch 5/2
    Abaraham 5/2
    Taylor 6/1
    Dirrell 9/1
    Ward 10/1

    European winner 1/7
    American winner 4/1

    Regardless of who you think will win, that 4/1 looks too good to miss out on!!

    The 3 best fighters are all european.

    And the 3 dodgy chins belong to America.

    Hence why they're all outsiders.

    I'm putting huge money on the Americans (blind patriotism maybe!!), and then a cover bet on Kessler!!

    Personally I don't see either Froch or Abraham winning it.

    Froch 5/2? these ****s as the poms wld say are having a laugh.

    The blokes a spastic

    My market:
    Kessler 4/6 the rest of the field 10/9

    I can't believe it, these odds are ****n ridiculous, only problem is the winner won't happen untill 2011, and maybe it won't finish the tournament

    Bookies wisely not willing to write off Taylor yet!!!

    Surprised how large Ward is though!!

    Any fellow Americans got the line from the motherland???

    Err, those are exactly the same odds you originally posted, just in traditional uk rather than decimal format...

    If the odds posted above that he is a 7/4 favourite are true, he's quite a big favourite in a six horse race.

    Next guy at 11/4.

    Divide and add one.

    Eg. 5/1 = 6.00, 9/2 = 5.50

    I agree but obviously the brits will lump money on Froch. And despite his shortcomings, Froch has the best victory of all the fighters in this tournamnet at 168...that cannot be denied!!!

    As I said, I'll be putting big dollars on an American (4/1) with a cover bet on Kessler!!!

    Anything can happen in Boxing & at 14/1 Dirrell must be worth a punt, surely?

    I think we should watch out for Ward! Think he will get actually get better!
