Gus Hansen and Theo Jorgensen Prepare for Boxing Match - Set For Feb. 21

Theo Jorgensen and Gus Hansen will battle it out in a boxing match in Copenhagen on February 21.


Gus and Theo have a prop bet on the outcome of the match; if Gus wins, Theo will pay him $25,000, if Theo wins, Gus will pay him $35,000. Gus is younger and in better shape that's why the odds are not 50/50.

You can watch a video of Jorgensen training, it is in Danish though.
