After coming out of his fifth retirement, Tyson Fury returns to the ring this Saturday at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to face Russian contender Arslanbek Makhmudov.
Fury, with sights set on a blockbuster clash with Anthony Joshua, makes his first return to the ring since December 2024, when he lost on points to then-undisputed heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk.
The ‘Gypsy King’ enters Saturday’s fight as a heavy favorite with Sky Bet, with the former world champion priced at a short 1/7.
For those expecting Fury to show signs of ring rust and come up short, Makhmudov is a 4/1 underdog, while a draw is priced at 20/1.
Tyson Fury vs Arslanbek Makhmudov preview: 4/1 odds for the ‘Gypsy King’ to win on points
Makhmudov, once considered a dangerous contender in the division, suffered the first defeat of his career against Agit Kabayel in late 2023. Another loss followed in the summer of 2024, raising doubts about his standing among the division’s elite.
However, he has bounced back in his last two fights, securing a technical knockout victory over Ricardo Brown before dominating Dave Allen on his way to a unanimous decision win last time out.
