Punter wins £50,000 from £1 stake with incredible combined football and Tyson Fury vs Deontay Wilder fight bet

The online customer remarkably backed the DRAW in WBC heavyweight title bout at 25/1.

While Tyson Fury bemoaned his controversial draw outcome against Deontay Wilder, the result proved to be perfect for one lucky individual.

The online customer had already predicted the score for 11 teams across England and Scotland and just needed his pick for the anticipated WBC heavyweight title fight to come through.

So, when Fury hit the canvas in the final round and stared into the lights of the Staples Center ceiling, he must have thought his 12-fold accumulator would be proved wrong.

However, the Gypsy King somehow rose to his feet to complete the fight and when the scoring was read out, the mystery punter would have no doubt been overjoyed.

Even if he took the Wilder/Fury selection out of the accumulator, the bet would have returned £1,886.84. Instead, the current account screen this morning would have showed a total of £49,056.88.

Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: "Putting the sensational boxing prediction to one side, it's rare we see 11 selections land on a footy acca. But the fact our plucky punter has correctly guessed the outcome of the weekend's big fight has turned this bet into one of the best we've seen so far this year."
