Tyson Fury is heavily odds-on to beat Francis Ngannou in the super fight this weekend
Saturday night sees the next massive boxing event take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia with Tyson Fury fighting former UFC Champion Francis Ngannou in the boxing ring.
UK Betting Sites have odds up for the fight with Fury unsurprisingly the heavy favourite at 1/18 to beat the 37-year-old Ngannou who is making his professional debut this weekend.
Fury's WBC Heavyweight Championship will not be on the line in the bout which is waving along the line between exhibition and realness throughout the week.
Thursday saw a press conference take place between the pair which was overshadowed by Fury's father John who had another case of 'main-character-syndrome' in Saudi Arabia.
Paddy Power's full market for the fight suggests that Fury has an implied probability of 94% of winning the bout this weekend which should be straight forward for the Boxer.
