While the bout only actually happens in two and a half months, the wagering markets have heated up considerably for the much-anticipated Ricky Hatton vs Manny Pacquiao title fight happening this May. We've been going out of our way to examine all of the different odds and markets you'll find at the top United Kingdom-based sportsbooks. As usual, Ricky Hatton is expected to be backed in big big numbers by his adoring public in the home nations.
anny Pacquiao has been considered the outright favourite for this fight since it was announced and the odds over at William Hill are indicative of that. At the time of this writing, Manny is listed at 8/15, which is better than the 2/5 you're seeing at most of the other sites.
In fact, you'll even find Hatton's odds are a little shorter than usual here and William Hill really seems to be a site where you should be backing Pacquiao instead of Hatton, as the outright odds aren't quite as generous. Ricky is listed at a mere 11/8 and they haven't quite put out all of the odds on the remaining markets quite yet, so be sure to check back at William Hill closer to fight time.
I'm confident that Manny's odds will drift shorter in the run-up to the actual fight itself. The site lists the draw at a juicy 20/1, but we all that isn't really a likely outcome. William Hill always has excellent odds on the outside round-by-round markets so I would be sure to check back closer to fight time to take advantage of those odds. On current odds though, I would suggest backing Pacquiao as the value is better at William Hill than many other wagering sites.
