Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder: Majority of punters back American heavyweight ahead of bout

Ladbrokes revealed 84 per cent of all placed bets have been on the Bronze Bomber to get the job done in Las Vegas.

Wilder, who boasts a record of 40 wins, is favourite at 5/6 – while Fury is being priced at 10/11 to win as he continues his inspirational comeback.

The pair confirmed the world-title fight after Fury's dominant victory over Francesco Pianeta after winning every round.

Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: "We've pushed Fury's odds out for this clash following his performance at the weekend.

"Our traders clearly aren't convinced with The Gypsy King and punters seem to think he'll face the first defeat of his professional career later this year."
