Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder Rematch
The Wilder vs Fury odds were almost even at the point the fight got underway. The boxing betting odds showed Fury as the clear favourite, which was well-founded as we watched the “Gypsy King” take Wilder to pieces, round after round.
Tyson βThe Gypsy Kingβ Fury fights out of Manchester and was keen to get a more conclusive result in this one after the first bout ended in a controversial split decision. The event took place on February 22, 2020, at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, Paradise, Nevada.
He managed to get the result he was hoping to get, destroying Wilder over the 7 rounds he fought in before his trainer threw in the towel. Although he contested his team’s decision, it was clear to anyone watching, that the fight was over.
A quick recap
This is a fight we’re unlikely to see again in 2020, though the rematch is on the cards if Wilder wants it. Fury is looking great after his return to boxing and Deontay is still doing what heβs always done. But who will come out on top in Vegas?
