Tyson Fury clear favourite for BBC Sports Personality after victory over Wilder
Gypsy King fancied to overcome Anthony Joshua if they meet
Latest boxing odds and BBC Sports Personality betting after Tyson Fury v Deontay Wilder II.
Tyson Fury is the clear 5-2 favourite to win the BBC Sports Personality of the Year award for 2020 after his stunning Las Vegas success over Deontay Wilder to claim the WBC heavyweight title.
The American's corner threw in the towel in the seventh round after their man was knocked down in the third and fifth rounds of a contest that was far more one-sided than their drawn first clash.
Wilder has 30 days to request a rematch if he wants one, but bookmakers are turning their attention to an all-British unification fight with WBA (Super), IBF, WBO and IBO champion Anthony Joshua.
Racing Post Sport's boxing expert Dan Williams tipped Tyson Fury at evens to win the fight and at 9-1 to triumph in rounds seven to 12
Bet365 quote Fury as 1-2 favourite against 6-4 shot Joshua should they meet and go 1-3 Fury for another match with Wilder (9-4).
Coral offer 2-1 that Fury meets Joshua in 2020, with Fury their 1-2 favourite if the fight takes place (13-8 Joshua, 25-1 draw). They go 1-4 Fury, 3-1 Wilder, 25-1 draw for a third contest with the hard-hitting American.
Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn told TalkSport: "I have already spoken to AJ and he wants this fight. He has zero fear of Tyson Fury and he wants to be undisputed."
Fury is 5-2 from 14-1 to win the BBC Sports Personality award, with Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson 12-1 and cyclist Laura Kenny 14-1. Lewis Hamilton, now 4-6 favourite to win a seventh F1 world title this year, matching Michael Schumacher's total, is 16-1, the same price as sprinting star Dina Asher-Smith.
