Predicted Winner
Being a strong favorite, it’s hard to pick against Nastia Liukin. Her gymnast background will be a major advantage. In reality she has a double advantage since her pro dancing partner is 5-time winner Derek Hough. It almost seems not fair to pair those 2 up. I like Liukin with 7/4 odds. My dark-horse pick is Redfoo at 12/1, I think he’ll become a big time fan favorite and continue to move through the competition with a popularity vote.
