With a bit of movement in the past few days in the Betfair wagering markets, we've put together a guide to ensure that you get the best value for your betting dollar on this next crucial stage in Amir Khan's burgeoning boxing career.The bookmakers' bet seems to be that Khan will win via decision.

A Barrera decision pays 4.8 while a victory by KO, TKO or DQ for Khan pays out in the region of 4.7. A Barrera victory via KO, TKO or DQ pays 3.95. A draw or technical draw pays out at 24.00. If you're backing the Khan victory via points, you'll do marginally better if you're wagering in the round betting market on Betfair where it pays 3.05 compared to the 2.9 in the method of victory market. The round betting looks like a KO is most likely between rounds 4-8, but I'm more confident that Khan will take advantage of a tired Barrera and really up his ante in the 8 and 9 rounds. A Khan victory by KO in the 8 pays 27.00 and round 9 pays 27.00. A Barrera points victory pays out at 4.5. Odds on the match to go the distance pay out at 1.63 for the yes and 2.2 for the no. You can effectively back a KO Each-Way by selecting the No victory, which really aren't bad odds considering Khan doesn't have a track record of fights going the distance. You can back a knockdown at 1.36 and no knockdowns at 3.00. Recommendation: Amir Khan to win via KO in the 9th round pays 4.7 and 27.00.
