Will the Gypsy King reign supreme again?
Cameron Frew

Tyson Fury vs Arslanbek Makhmudov is the biggest sports event of the weekend – so make sure you know exactly what time the fight starts in the UK, how to watch it, and if there are any free streams.

The 37-year-old ‘Gypsy King’ was last seen in the ring in December 2024, after losing to Oleksandr Usyk.

However, much like previous times that he’d claimed to retire, Fury has returned to face off against a new opponent: Makhmudov, a 6’6″ Russian who could prove to be a dangerous opponent.

So, what time does Fury vs Makhmudov start, can you stream it for free, and who’s the bookies’ favourite to win? We’re to answer all of those questions – and a few others.

Who will win?

Tyson Fury is the bookies’ favourite to win, with Oddschecker listing him at 2/9 and Arslanbek Makhmudov at 9/2 (or a draw at 30/1).

Fury’s record (34-2-1, with 24 KOs) speaks for itself, but we shouldn’t rule out Makhmudov (21-2, 19 KOs).

“I have to fight somebody dangerous to make me want to even train, make me want to even take it seriously,” Fury said ahead of the fight.

“So now I know I’ve got a dangerous knockout artist in front of me… I’m looking forward to coming here, putting on a real show at Tottenham. And most of all, I’m looking forward to punching his face right in.”

Makhmudov is well aware of what Fury is capable of, but he hasn’t appeared fazed going into the fight. “He’s a legend, but I came here to make my legacy,” he said.
