Usyk - Fury: bookmakers reacted unexpectedly to the fight postponement by updating one of the quotes

Briton Tyson Fury (34-0-1, 24 KOs) is still a slight favorite in his fight against Oleksandr Usyk (21-0, 14 KOs) for the title of absolute world heavyweight champion. At the same time, the postponement of the fight from February 17 to May 18 due to an autopsy on the Gypsy King, as the Manchester native is known, affected one of the quotes.

In particular, bookmakers unexpectedly updated their forecast for a draw, believing that the chances of such a result have now decreased. Now you can bet that Usyk and Fury will not be able to find a winner in the first fight with odds of 17.00 (previously - 15.00).

At the same time, quotes on Tyson's victory remained at 1.80. And the odds on Alexander's success have also not changed and reach 2.00.

The grand fight was postponed as Fury suffered a cut during sparring. Tyson apologized for his injury, and a video of the moment of his injury was shown online. In response, fans reacted angrily to the situation.

At the same time, the Ukrainian named the person responsible for postponing the show. The Gypsy King later told the details of how he got the injury.

Croatian heavyweight Agron Smakic (20-2, 18 KOs), who struck the Gypsy King, commented on the situation. The organizers of the show in Riyadh have announced a new date for the Usyk-Fury fight, setting a "draconian condition" for the boxers.
