    You might be better actually calling into a bookies and asking. 16 years ago I done a bet in paddy power that my newly born daughter would represent Ireland at an internationally recognised sport before her 25th birthday. They gave me 100/1 but I was only allowed put £5 on it. They will take bets on most things if you present yourself at the counter.

    Not so far. Unless being a petulant 16 year old girl is counted as a sport.

    Nothing showing for this as yet, only 2016.
    for a 4 yr time-frame, you'd be as well seeking standard 5% investment.

    i.e. A = P(1+r/n)^nt

    So your initial $10,000 would mean $12,155 compounded for a 'party bunga-bunga good-times' weekend somewhere in 2020
    - that is, if asteroid 2015 TB145 doesn't touch down between now and then.

    Then again there was a young chap called Rory that showed an interest in golf-stick-ball and someone had a small wager on him doing well

    I have a feeling the price you would get on Sage winning a title within 4 years would be miniscule. Definitely odds on anyway.

    He's the type of fighter that will fight a lot during the year, so a few quick wins in a row and he'll get a title shot.
