Amir Khan vs Marco Antonio Barrera Full Betting Guide

The betting action has finally kicked off in earnest for the much-anticipated bout between Bolton's favourite son Amir Khan and one of the most respected fighters of the modern era Marco Antonio Barrera. In terms of the direct outright betting, Khan is holding his edge as the 4/6 favourite, but there is so much value in this fight that you're doing yourself a disservice by betting strictly on the outright market. The real money to be made is in the round betting. Stan James has the most competitive odds for this fight, with round-by-round wagering coming in at much higher odds than a number of other sites. Khan's odds span anywhere from 22/1 all the way up to 66/1 with rounds 3-5 being his most favoured rounds to score a knockout, tko or DQ victory. I'm personally of the opinion that he'll win by KO or TKO but I'm eyeing rounds 7 through 9 as the money rounds. I'll be getting between 28/1 and 33/1. Barrera is sitting between 25/1 in rounds 3-5 all the way up to 80/1 for the twelfth round victory. Barring a shock early knockout, something Amir Khan knows a thing or two about, I don't see Barrera winning this on anything other than points. You'll be getting 11/4 on a Barrera points victory. Khan to go the distance and win is 7/4.
