Gladiators Odds 2025: Who Will Win The Second Series?

The first of the Gladiators semi-finals will take place on Saturday night, and the quarter-finals ended in style - with another record-breaking performance. 

Nathan Bland, a CrossFit gym owner from Sunderland, has seen his price tumble on betting sites after he set a new men's Eliminator record in the series. 

It was a fantastic episode to be a gym owner. 

As well as Nathan in the men's quarters, gym owner Keeva Neely, from Belfast, progressed after she overcame Rachel Bruno-Hardy, the daughter of boxing legend Frank Bruno. 

Record-Breaker Nathan 

Nathan made it to the semi-final after defeating Andy Mitchell. 

He had amassed a huge nine-second head start over Andy before the Eliminator, and the latter may have found it tough to overcome Nathan anyway, because Nathan ended up smashing the Eliminator record by four seconds.

Thanks to his head start, Nathan was already on the trapeze by the time Andy started the Eliminator. 

While Andy needed a mistake from Nathan to help him to catch up, it was Andy who made an error after missing his footing on the cargo net. 

Nathan kept calm, racing over the beam and up the Traveltor in one go, to complete the Eliminator in just 59 seconds. 

Commentator Guy Mowbray described his performance as "absolutely outstanding". 

Gladiator Odds 2025: Male Winner

Andy still had a chance of being the fastest runner-up in quarters, but it took him two attempts to do the Travelator and he just missed out. 

Following the epic Eliminator, host Bradley Walsh asked Nathan if he thought he is one of the favourites to win this year's male contest. 

He said: "I hope so. I've put everything into these events. 

"I've been studying every single one at home, watching all of the last episodes over and over again."

Following his exploits, Nathan is now 4/6 favourite on betting apps to win this year's Gladiators, followed by Evens second-favourite Joe Fishburn and Mus Dumbuya (11/10). 

What's more, Joe Holroyde, who lost to Mus in the first quarter-final, is 2/1 fourth-favourite after qualifying for the semis as the fastest runner-up in the quarter-finals. 

Keeva Progresses 

Keeva had a huge 8.5 second head start over Rachel in the Eliminator following an epic performance in the events. 

During the Eliminator, Keeva made a slight stumble at the top of the rope, but Rachel also struggled at a similar stage.

Keeva nearly fell off the balance beam a couple of times, but she managed to keep her composure, and she raced up the Travelator in one go to seal herself a place in the semis.

Rachel also took one go to make it up the Travelator, but she just missed out on a semi-final place. 

Gladiator Odds 2025: Female Winner

While she qualified for the quarters after being the fastest runner-up in the heats, it wasn't to be this time around. 

Aneila Afsar, who lost out to Amanda Wah in the second quarter-final, advances to the semis as the fastest runner-up in the quarters. 

Keeva is 11/8 third-favourite to win this year's women's contest, just in front of 2/1 chance Aneila. 

The pair have it all to do if they are to overcome favourite Amanda (8/13) and second favourite Zavia Hill (10/11).
