According to odds released by Oddschecker, 'The Gypsy King' is the -250 favorite to win against Oleksandr Usyk. On the flipside, Usyk has opened up as the +200 underdog for a potential fight against Fury.
The odds might not come as a surprise to many. Tyson Fury has opened up as a massive favorite in most of his recent fights. Oleksandr Usyk, on the other hand, is used to being an underdog.
'The Cat' was an underdog in his first fight against Anthony Joshua but went on to put on an impressive performance to win the fight. Moreover, there is a substantial size difference between the two which could've also played a major factor in determining the odds. It is worth noting that Usyk is a former cruiserweight champion.
Tyson Fury calls both Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk 'sh*t'
'The Gypsy King' reacted to the recent fight between Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua and it is safe to say he wasn't too impressed. As mentioned earlier, Usyk took on Joshua this past weekend in a highly anticipated rematch and went on to defeat 'AJ' for the second time.
Following the fight, Fury chimed in with his take on the fight. While suggesting that he'd beat both on the same night, 'The Gypsy King' said:
"Be honest with you guys, after watching that, that both of them were s**t. It was one of the worst heavyweight fights I have ever seen, it was bulls**t. I would annihlate them both on the same night, f***ing s**t. Get your f***ing chequebook out coz The Gypsy King is here to stay, Forever!"
Fury's statements indicate a U-turn from his previous stance. The Gypsy King had announced his boxing retirement recently on his birthday, however, it looks like Fury's roaring to go into the ring.
THE GYPSY KING IS HERE TO STAY!!!
