Boxing Match Between The Two Great Danes
What do you do if you are a high stakes poker player with nothing to do one day? Easy! You challenge your friend to a high stakes boxing match in order to promote the launch of your new website.
This is what Danish poker professional Gus Hansen decided to do when he challenged his Danish friend Theo Jorgensen to a boxing match with $60 000 at stake.
These are the rules that the to competitors have lined up:
If Gus Hansen wins he will get $25 000 from Jorgensen.
If Theo Jorgensen wins he will receive $35 000 from Gus Hansen.
As you can see it looks like Gus Hansen should be the favourite in this match but according to all the betting companies it is Theo Jorgensen that is the favourite to win the match. The reason why Gus Hansen decided to make the stakes this way is probably due to the fact that he stands to gain a lot more from this game than Theo as he is using this match to promote the launch of his new website.
It is also rumoured that Ziimund will go up in the ring against another poker player but that match has yet to be determined.
