Wilder now odds on favourite to beat Tyson Fury

It’s one of the most hotly anticipated fights, with tension and excitement building over these last few weeks, and now Deontay Wilder has been announced favourite to win again the self proclaimed Gypsy King, Tyson Fury.

Round two knock out

Wilder and Fury are set to go head to head this Saturday at the MGM Grand resort in Las Vegas and Fury has said he plans to knock out Wilder within two rounds. Despite being the bookies’ favourite up until now, Tyson Fury’s odds have now slipped. William Hill had given odds of the 6’9” Fury winning at 1/1, but have now edged Wilder into the lead with odds of 10/11.

31 year old Fury announced his game plan for the fight, saying “In the first fight, I tried to out-box him but I didn’t win. So now I am going to knock him out inside two rounds. The consensus is that either he knocks me out or I win on points. Usually when people have that opinion, it goes the opposite way.”

The pair met previously back in 2018 in a controversial fight which ended in a draw. Fury was attempting to regain the WBC title from Wilder which dramatically saw him being knocked to the ground, with the crowd thinking he was out for the count. However, Fury got up and carried on, and made one of the most spectacular comebacks in boxing history. Despite the fight ending in a draw, many believed Fury was robbed of the win and title. This Saturday’s fight is going to set the record straight.
