WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury 33-0-1 (24 KOs) entertained and controlled former 2 X foe Derek Chisora 33-13 (23 KOs), before forcing a stoppage in the tenth of an easily forgettable all British heavyweight title. 60,000 on site fans attended the spectacle at The Tottenham Hotspur stadium and celebrated what was a dominant performance by the self proclaimed Gypsy King. The always competitive Derek Chisora came to fight and offered a determined body hustle in the early rounds. Unfortunately Fury established control with the jab and began walking Chisora onto crafty uppercuts and counters. Despite his bravery and courage Chisora appeared to run out of ideas towards the latter rounds and became open house for Fury’s intelligently selected shots. By the 10th referee Victor Loughlin carefully observed Chisora who’s resolve appeared to be hanging by a thread. With 9 seconds lift in the session, Fury landed a crisp cluster coercing Laughlin to call a halt to the action.
Alternatively unified heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk along with the undefeated Joe Joyce took in the action from ringside, and approached the Gypsy King on the ring apron in a slapstick exchange to hype potential future challenges. Fury appears to be the man to beat in the division and the options include return matches with Wilder and a superfight with Joshua along with unification with Usyk, however the challenge of the bell schooled and stubborn Joe Joyce was be the most likely fight to happen in 2023.
Fury did make a comment to suggest that he has injuries to his right hand and right elbow that he will need to attend to prior to his next ring appearance.
