Ok I dont know how many followers we have on this, and the markets seem pretty dire on the world championships but its best to make a thread on it.

Re: IAAF World Championships Athletics 27th August - 4th September I'll put a first one up: Asafa Powell to win 100m - 3.75 William Hill Yes I am backing against Usain Bolt. He is the 6th fastest man on the earth this year, he has struggled with injuries all year and goes into the world championships very unprepared. Anyway to Powell. He goes into this years worlds brimming with confidence and in good form, he has been running consistently 9.90 throughout the year-even in cold conditions and was also the 1st man to break the ten second barrier in Birmingham earlier last month. I just think with Bolt out of form and worries over his fitness and Tyson Gay out injured for the championships Powell will see this as a opportunity to be crowned 100m World Champion.
