It's the boxing fight of 2020! Even if it is only February! Deontay Wilder takes on Tyson Fury in a rematch of their December 2018 fight.
Both fighters have everything to gain and everything to lose. A controversial draw last time robbed Fury of a heroic win. The fight takes place in Las Vegas again and promises to be another epic - the classic 50:50! We'll pick out the best bets you should be backing for this monumental fight.
Where is the fight being held?
MGM Grand in Las Vegas
Knockdowns
Wilder famously knocked down Fury twice in their last fight. You would be a brave man to bet against either fight not to be knocked down (13/8 with Bet Victor). The betting markets have Fury at under evens to be knocked down with Unibet best at 41/50. While Wilder is much higher odds, at 9/4 with Unibet.
Fury may have dominated many of the rounds in the first fight, but it Wilder who ended the fight with two downs in four of the last rounds.
Wilder may have been knocked down, but he ended the fight very strongly and was unlucky to not to claim the win. If you think Fury can go one better after being knocked down, the 9/2 offered by Coral looks good!
I like the look of both Wilder to get knocked down at 9/4 with Unibet and Fury to be knocked down and win the fight! Get backing!
1st Bet: Deontay Wilder to be knocked down @ 9/4 with Unibet
2nd Bet: Tyson Fury to be knocked down and win the fight @ 9/2 with Coral

Who will Win the Fight?
The odds reflect the very even nature of this fight! The bookies can't call it!
Paddy Power are offering evens on Deontay Wilder!
Unibet are offering 21/20 on Tyson Fury!
William Hill are 25/1 on the draw!
Every Boxing pundit out could make a decent case for either fighter. Both are incredible fighters with impeccable records.
Fury and Wilder have both had two bouts since their last meeting. Wilder has had the tougher contests against Luis Ortiz and Dominic Breazeale.
But the best clues to work out who might win were all there in the first fight. Do you read more into the fact Wilder put down Fury twice, or the fact Fury got back up twice and still didn't lose.
Fury seems even more focused by accounts for this fight. If Fury came back from the wilderness and nearly won last, what can he do this time after even more focused training?
I think Wilder will be concerned by knocking down Fury, but still not winning the fight. For me that's the big issue and why i'm going to back Fury to win at 21/20 with Unibet!

How will the Winner Win?
Ok so we've ruled out the draw. Wilder won't win! How will Tyson Fury win this boxing match?
It's all about winning! Fury has made it clear however it's done that's the goal. Tyson Fury has the moves; the left arm, the rolling shoulder, keeping his chin out the way, and an ability to get out the way of the big shots! If Fury can do, then a masterpiece of a technical display should see Fury win on points? Betfair are 17/10 for Fury by Decision or Technical Decision.
But let's not forget Fury had plenty of moments in a disciplined display! If Fury can take it up a notch then Fury by KO, TKO or Disqualification is 9/2 with bet365!
It may not be the sexy win we all want, but it's the logical bet and Fury by Decision or Technical Decision is the way to go!
