LAS VEGAS – The revived heavyweight division in boxing has two of its biggest names in the sport battling in the ring for the second time as Tyson Fury (29-0-1) takes on WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder (42-0-1).
The first time Fury-Wilder met in December 2018 the fight ended in a controversial draw that caused both fighters to immediately call for a rematch. Those who bet on Boxing walked away with nothing that time.
Although the rematch comes one year later, both fighters come into this fight having won their last two fights since the draw was called between them. With each boxer still in their primes, this match has the potential to be one of the greatest fights in recent memory.
Odds For Fury Vs. Wilder 2
Wilder (-135) is the slight favorite over Fury (+115) in the rematch and it’s hard to bet against Wilder who is always one punch away from ending a fight. Wilder winning this fight by a Decision or Technical decision is listed at +1000 odds. While that same prop has a Fury win listed at +155 odds if bettors want to do a double parlay on an upset victory by the Gypsy King.
If searching for more profitable odds on a Wilder win through online sports betting sites there are two interesting round group props. For example, a Deontay Wilder win in rounds 11-12 has +1200 and if Fury were to win in those same two rounds he’s listed as having +3000 odds.
Bettors can group together three rounds for shorter but still profitable odds. Wilder winning in the rounds 4-6 have +475 odds and if Fury were to win in those same three rounds, he’s listed at +1500 on the odds boards.
However, for bettors that want to just bet on a single round victory those odds provide the best returns with no odds listed under +1000 for Wilder winning and the odds board for Fury is even more generous with its returns with no round offering less than +3500 odds.

What History Can Say
In the first fight Fury was knocked onto the canvas twice. With Wilder being one of the strongest punchers in the world it's very likely Fury will be the first to be knocked down again. If Wilder is knocked down there is a special prop to consider that provides profitable odds.
That special can be found at Bovada sportsbooks and is “Deontay Wilder to be knocked down and Win” with the “Yes” odds coming in at +600 odds and the “No” odds at -1600. Wilder has shown he can take punches and recover. It’ll take more than a single knockdown for Fury to get the WBC heavyweight title from Wilder. So roll the dice on the “Yes” odds at +600.
There’s a lot more on the line in this fight as the winner will be in prime position to fight Anthony Joshua for a shot at becoming the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis.
These two fighters don’t like each other and expect that motivation to be on full display in the fight, plus these two have already been banned from facing off at their weigh-in on Friday.
The rematch between Fury-Wilder is set to begin with undercards starting to fight at 7:30 p.m. ET and the main card at 9 p.m. ET.
