Number crunchers have revealed the predicted outcome of an undisputed heavyweight title clash between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua.

Ahead of a potential agreement by April, Oddschecker has confirmed what they believe to be the most likely scenario.

Tyson Fury, the bookies’ favorite, to reign supreme

In what would be the biggest fight in British boxing history, the bookmakers are heavily fancying undefeated WBC world champion, Tyson Fury, to beat WBA, WBO, and IBF champ Anthony Joshua. To claim the undisputed heavyweight championship of the world.

The Gypsy King is as short as 4/7 to hand Joshua the second defeat of his career, while he’s as short as 4/9 with some operators.

Fury knocked former-WBC champion, Deontay Wilder out in devastating fashion last February. He will be looking to cement his legacy as the best heavyweight of this era.

The highly-anticipated Joshua face-off is on the cards.

AJ, who overcame mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev in December via a 9th round stoppage, is out at 7/4 with the bookies, with many believing Fury’s speed and height advantage will prove too much for the 31-year-old.

An unlikely draw is a chunky 22/1.
