Tyson Fury vs Derek Chisora Pictures – Fury odds-on favourite after pair face-off at press conference

Fury will be defending his WBC heavyweight title at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, it was announced at a press conference on Thursday.

And following the announcement the bookmakers are confident that the champion will retain.

Fury is 1/20 to win the fight at bet365, with Chisora considered a 9/1 underdog.

Those odds will come as no surprise given previous fights between the pair and their recent forms.

Fury beat Chisora by decision when the pair first met back in July 2011, and he then dominated his domestic rival for 10 rounds in the rematch before Chisora’s corner pulled him.

Since then Fury has gone on to become a two-time world heavyweight champion.

During this run he has beaten the legendary Wladimir Klitschko by decision and stopped Deontay Wilder on two occasions to improve to 32-0-1.

Chisora, meanwhile, has gone on to lose seven more times and come up short in a bid to win the European heavyweight title.

He lost twice to Joseph Parker last year as part of a three-fight losing sequence, but he was able to end his losing run in July with a split decision success against Kubrat Pulev.
