Friday 12 February 2010 at 15:33
Amir Khan v Paulie Malignaggi Betting Odds are now available with SkyBet with the ‘Magic Man' widely expected to be Kahn's next opponent. The fight is likely to take place in New York on May 15th.
Malignaggi Looks The Perfect Fight For Hatton In First Fight For Golden Boy Promotions
Sky Bet's boxing betting spokesman Scott Springgay said:
“Malignaggi should be the perfect opponent for Khan, who is a relatively big name in America but doesn't carry any sort of punching power so shouldn't threaten Khan's chin. However, Khan will be looking to better Hatton's eleventh round stoppage of Malignaggi in order to show the American public what he is made of and make his name as the latest British boxing superstar.”
This sort of thinking has led to Khan being installed as the 1/4 favourite with SkyBet to win the fight, whilst Malignaggi is 3/1 with SkyBet. The draw is rated at 33/1 with SkyBet.
Khan Could Win On Points According To Bookies Before Fight With Hatton
SkyBet think Khan is likely to end the fight with a victory on points, that is rated at 5/6 with SkyBet whilst you can get 21/10 with SkyBet on Kahn winning between rounds 1-12 by any method. With Malignaggi's stopping power in question his best hope is for a points victory and that is 7/2 with SkyBet. Khan will still be hoping to meet Ricky Hatton before the Hitman retires, SkyBet are also offering odds on that fight and they make Khan a 4/7 shot for that fight, whilst Hatton is 5/4 with SkyBet.
