£100m GAMBLE

MORE THAN £100million is expected to be bet worldwide on tonight’s world heavyweight championship superfight between Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley Stadium. Last night, fans were still clamouring to be part of the British record crowd of 90,000, with the best tickets changing hands for thousands of pounds on resale websites. Millions more will watch on television and around £20m will be wagered on the fight in the UK. Yesterday’s weigh-in produced a sensation of its own as Joshua hit the scales heavier than the Ukrainian by almost 10lb. Klitschko, 41, came in half a stone lighter than his usual fighting weight, at 17st 2lb.
