Gladiators Celebrity Winner Odds: Joe Wicks Favourite to Win New Special

The much-anticipated Gladiators: Celebrity Special returns after last year's hit show and betting odds are already being offered on who will be crowned the champion. 

Leading the betting market is fitness guru Joe Wicks, who is currently priced at 1/3 to come out on top.

The special edition of the popular show sees high-profile names take on the famed Gladiators in a series of intense physical challenges. 

Joe Wicks' high level of fitness and public persona as "The Body Coach" puts him firmly at the top of the pile, with the market giving him a 75% implied probability of victory.

Olympic boxing champion Nicola Adams is close behind at 1/2, suggesting a 66.7% chance of success, while media favourites Sam Thompson and Vogue Williams are both priced as 5/1 outsiders.

What the expert says...
Wicks is tailor-made for this format. He's charismatic, super-fit and built for the fast-paced, physical nature of Gladiators. Nicola Adams fitness will also see her do well, but Sam and Vogue are longer shots for a reason.

How the Market is Moving

Joe Wicks opened as the favourite with Nicola Adams to win their sides of the show. 

The betting odds are given based on the strong public confidence in Wicks' all-round athletic ability and likely mass appeal.

Sam Thompson and Vogue Williams are both outsiders, with both at 5/1.
