Dereck Chisora – Tyson Fury: Betting Odds

Heavyweight Dereck “Del Boy” Chisora (19-4, 13 KOs) is a -700 favorite to defeat Kevin “Kingpin” Johnson (29-4-1, 14 KOs) when they meet tonight in a PPV clash in London. Johnson backers can get +500. The over/under is set at 9.5 rounds. With the defensive-minded Johnson having never been stopped, the over is -380. Under is +315.

In the co-feature, unbeaten heavyweight Tyson Fury (21-0, 15 KOs) at -2150 is a prohibitive favorite over +1300 underdog Joey Abell (29-7, 28 KOs). Fury is also expected to get Abell out of there quickly with the over/under set at just 5.5 rounds. Over is +145, while under is -175. Abell has dropped three of his last five via the KO route.

If Chisora and Fury win as expected, they will meet in a WBO heavyweight eliminator in the summer.
