The Story in 60 Seconds

Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are scheduled to meet on December 11 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff for the WBA "super" heavyweight world title. Both fighters have publicly predicted an early knockout, with Joshua suggesting the bout could end in the opening round and Fury claiming he plans to blast his opponent out of the ring immediately.

Following these predictions, bookmaker Bet Goodwin opened its betting markets, listing a first-round knockout at 40/1 for Joshua and 28/1 for Fury. Bet Goodwin COO Ben Head stated that the mutual knockout claims are likely to sway bettors into backing a swift stoppage rather than the fight going the distance.
