Manny Pacquiao vs. Jeff Horn re-match odds, tips & bonuses

AUSTRALIAN boxing has a new hero in Jeff Horn.

The plucky Queenslander was able to vanquish boxing legend Manny Pacquaio in a 12-round decision at Suncorp stadium in front of more than 60,000 fans, justifying the huge build-up and hype.

Paying as much as $6 before the fight, Horn took it to Manny early in the fight, setting a precedent that he was able to maintain throughout, withstanding a late comeback from the Philippines politician who is set for a place in the sport’s hall of fame.

Pacquiao, a punching machine who has made more than half a billion dollars across his fight career, has already committed to a re-match with Horn where he will start as favourite.

The question is for punters, the two contestants and a new legion of boxing fans around the country – can Jeff Horn do it again?

Who will win the Manny Pacquiao vs. Jeff Horn re-match?

Aussie Horn is a rising star of the ring and his come from nothing back story is one that resonates with Aussies. His win on July 2 at Suncorp Stadium will go down as one of the country’s great boxing moments.

The two blokes stood form and delivered a great bout – the kind of fight we had been waiting for.

Horn used his strengths to perfection – legs that are almost a decade younger than Pacquiao’s and a huge weight advantage. His spacing and speed were a factor.

Talk post-fight was that Pacquiao was slight underdone coming in. Will he make that mistake in a re-match?

Will Horn, after tasting blood once, rise to a new level of confidence?

The odds suggest Pacquaio will start favourite, but it’s fair to expect another 12-round epic.

We’re betting this one goes the distance to points again.
