While some blamed Wilder’s legs going out in the second round (something he blamed on his extremely heavy pre-fight entrance costume) for Fury’s relatively simple victory, the fact remains that he is considered the favourite this time around once again. 

Tyson Fury can be backed at a best price of around ⅓ with several top bookmakers to defeat Deontay Wilder by any method. The American fighter will be priced at around 5/2 which is a solid price if you think he’s going to be able to come back out with some revamped tactics and get the better of Tyson Fury. The draw trades around 25/1 at the time of this writing. 

Fury to win the fight by KO, TKO or DQ is considered to be an odds-on selection in the “method of victory” market with a price of around 20/21 with several top bookmakers. This fight is unlikely to go the distance - particularly when you look at the style both heavyweights bring to the table. 

Fury to win the match by decision rewards at around 5/2 while Wilder’s price to win by KO, TKO or DQ sits around 10/3. A Deontay Wilder victory by decision is priced rather high at 14/1 and you reckon there will be a few punters who think that could be the cheeky outcome - perhaps in a split decision. 

The bookmakers seem to think that Round 7 is the lucky one for Tyson Fury and he trades at a 14/1 best price to wrap up in the fight in the seventh round.
