Deontay Wilder is the betting favourite against Tyson Fury, and the former world champion has brilliantly reacted to the odds.

The self-proclaimed 'Gypsy King' will be fighting for world honours on December 1st, and he's the betting underdog heading into the heavyweight world title bout.

Oddschecker have released the odds which has Fury a 6/4 underdog. Wilder is the 8/11 favourite.

Fury was also the underdog against Wladimir Klitschko in 2015. He defied the odds by dethroning the Ukrainian in Dusselfdorf, Germany, despite being priced at 5/1.

A point he's brought up. "I was 5/1 vs old wlad but still won," Fury said in reply to Oddschecker's odds.

Fury will be seeking to emulate his heroics against Klitschko when he faces Wilder on December 1st in Los Angeles, California.

Ahead of the heavyweight showdown, Wilder and Fury will go on a three-stop media tour.
