    It might be just me, but i don't understand how the +200 odds works and can't be arsed to look up how it works, but you can get Maidana through traditional odds at around 11/4. Worth a few bob betting on him, but i'm certainly not tempting fate by backing him!

    +200 means if you bet 100 you win 200. -200 means you have to bet 200 to win 100.

    Easily explained. Cheers mate, much appreciated. The bookies will be taking in a whole load of bets in favor of a Maidana win i'm sure.

    Including mine. I got Maidana to win by KO in any round at 5-1 about eight weeks ago. Though I fancy Khan to win, that price was just far too nice to pass up.

    Somebody once said that when a true genius appears in the world all the dunces will be in confederacy against him. OTOH, you might just be like that stupid woman from the View who thought the earth was flat. :lol:

    I actually think Khan will win quite handily, but wth his chin (which is shite, whichever way you slice it) one shot might just end matters. At that price I couldn't resist.

    That's basically my feeling too. I actually give Khan a 60-65% chance of winning but my money will be on Maidana purely because of the odds. And Im picking him because I hate Khan (as a boxer) more than cauliflower.

    No matter how tempting the odds are on maidana to win, i've never backed against him and don't intend on doing so now. The khanwagon will keep on rolling!!
