Audley Harrison least favourite to win Strictly

Bookies say boxer will be first male to leave the show

DANCER: Audley Harrison

AUDLEY HARRISON will be the first male to be evicted from this year's Strictly Come Dancing, according to Ladbrokes.

The former heavyweight boxer won't get the chance to deliver more than one knockout blow on the popular BBC 1 show, say the noted bookmakers who have predicted that he has just a mere 50/1 chance of lifting the winners trophy.

They also say that there's a 20/1 chance that the judges, made up of Bruno Tonioli, Alesha Dixon, Len Goodman and Craig Revel Horwood, will unanimously award the 39-year-old zero points for his performance.

Alex Donohue of Ladbrokes said: "Harrison may have had the fancy footwork in the ring but we can't see him landing the killer blow here."

"The odds suggest he'll go down in the early rounds again," he added.

Harrison is set to compete alongside retired footballer Robbie Savage, former politician Edwina Currie and astrologer Russell Grant, as well as a bevy of other celebrities.

Strictly Come Dancing begins on Sep 10 on BBC one.

Im not surprised if Audley Harrison is voted off first, black people's chances of winning reality shows are getting slimmer and slimmer-2006-2008 had plenty of non-white reality show winners but that is now 'Strictly' a thing of the past. Why do we bother!

Oh dear oh dear, oh dear is this what he's resorted to doing now? Well let's hope he's better at this because he wasn't much of a boxer! ....I wonder if he's going to dedicate his dancing to the Queen like his boxing...

astrologer Russell Grant all this jackass does is sit on his rotten ass and tell people fibs, then want to claim your hard earned pounds. why is it so hard for some people to find a real job?
