Tyson Fury Given 73% Chance of Beating Oleksandr Usyk
Oleksandr Usyk beat Anthony Joshua for a second time at the weekend with the rematch between the pair taking place in Saudi Arabia.
After the fight there was an emotional response from Anthony Joshua which stole the headlines from Oleksandr Usyk who won the Heavyweight title bout.
Despite all the headline-grabbing antics following the Ukrainian's victory, talk immediately focused on the supposedly retired Tyson Fury and speculation has begun on what would happen if the pair were to meet.
Betting sites who have priced up a potential bout have made Fury a 4/11 favourite should the bout take place, representing a better than 70% chance of a win, whilst Usyk has been given odds of 11/5.
