Oscar De La Hoya-Amir Khan-Audley Harrison-Olympic Heroes Special Boxing Treble Betting with Betfred
Some great Boxing action is in store this weekend when three Olympic medalists, Oscar De La Hoya, Amir Khan, Audley Harrison are scheduled to fight. All three are odds on favourite with the UK bookmakers to win their respective bouts against Manny Pacquiao, Fagan and Martin Rogan in order mentioned. This has prompted UK bookmakers Betfred to come out with Olympic special treble betting on all 3 winning their bouts. They are offering Evens for all three Olympians to win their bouts while 4/5 odds are being offered for the treble not happening. The odds of the treble are better than backing all three of them separately. The reasons are not too difficult to explain. Betfred expects one of the fights to go against odds. Betfred's Spokesman Jon Wilde has said "We know these three long odds-on shots will be highly popular with punters at the combined price but we are particularly happy to lay Khan and De La Hoya. "Khan was ruthlessly exposed by Breidis Prescott on his last outing and we think anyone he gets into the ring with has a puncher's chance against him, so we're not dismissing Saturday's opponent Oisin Fagan. "Money has been flooding in for Manny Pacquiao against De La Hoya so we are also happy to lay the 'Golden Boy' as part of the treble because we are definitely on his side at present." BettingChoice Analysis : In our previous review of the fight between Oscar De La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao, our team had also been inclined towards backing Pacquiao to upset Hoya. Many bookmakers, including Betfred have been getting a lot of interest in Pacquiao which has prompted them to cut the odds on Pac-Man. If there is an upset, the bookmakers stand to loose a good amount this time and this has prompted them to offer better odds on Hoya now. This explains the better odds on the treble also at Betfred. However, this surely is a great odds to back the Olympic Heroes together. If you feet the treble might not happen the most likely upset would seems to be of Hoya. In this case we would suggest backing Manny Pacquiao individually to win at 2/1 odds available at another UK bookmakers, Paddy Power
