Tyson Fury passes Derek Chisora ​​and waits for Uzi

England’s Tyson Fury (33-0-1, 24 KO) defeated compatriot Derek Chisora ​​(33-13-0, 23 KO) via tenth round TKO at a packed Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in England.

Fury retained the belt recognizing him as the World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight champion. This will be his third title defense after taking it from American Deontay Wilder on February 22, 2020.

The fight seemed like a Sparing For Fury, he completed the sweep in his three fights against Chisora ​​(2011, 2014 and 2022).

The decision came in the 10th round when the referee stopped proceedings to avoid further punishment for a practically defenseless Chisora.

Oleksandr Usyk, the World Boxing Association (WBA), World Boxing Organization (WBO) and International Boxing Federation (IBF) heavyweight champion, as well as Fury’s next opponent, will be among the luxury guests.

In the post-fight interview, Usyk entered the ring when Chisora ​​said everyone wanted a Fury-Usick unification match. Joe Joyce, another of the division’s top contenders, stepped up as well, and the trio put on a far more entertaining show than the fight against Chisora.

“You’re next, you little b…,” Fury (33-0-1, 24 kills) said when he came face-to-face with Usyk.

Fury later mocked Usyk’s two wins over Anthony Joshua, whom he described as a mere “bodybuilder”.

“Well, I’m not a bodybuilder, you idiot,” he said. “Ugly little man. Let’s do it!”

Fury dominated as expected, landing 56% of his power punches. Chisora ​​has been outscored 636-255 in his 3 losses to Fury. #furivescissora pic.twitter.com/pYkw8R6SDq

Fury points to Usyk’s pair of wins over Anthony Joshua to capture three heavyweight titles and retain them in August. The 35-year-old former undisputed cruiserweight champion laughed wordlessly as he absorbed Fury’s usual histrionics.

And the clash, one of the best in all of boxing, is expected to be the next challenge for both. But Fury said he will first need surgery on his right elbow, which will keep him out for 6 to 8 weeks. He previously had surgery on his left elbow to remove bone fragments following an 11th-round knockout of Deontay Wilder in a trilogy fight last October.

Fury also said he injured his right hand on Saturday. “We’ll see when I’m ready for this fight. [con Usyk]. Let’s see when it can be done.”

ESPN’s no. The 34-year-old, a 6 pound-for-pound fighter, said he was retired following his April TKO win over Dillian Whyte, but that split lasted four months. Fury picked up where he left off on Saturday with another brutal attack on the legendary English heavyweight.

The Englishman’s impressive offensive arsenal was on full display: a forward right uppercut, a double jab that set up a straight right hand and plenty of clinch punches where he forced Chisora’s wobbly legs to carry his 268-plus pounds.

He seemed to be toying with Chisora ​​and probably could have ended the fight sooner had he tried. Fury later admitted that he “needed a few rounds” and had “shots that would knock anyone out”.

“He’s not going to stop, the ref has to take him out or he’s going to knock him out,” Fury said.

Indeed, Chisora ​​(33-13, 23 KOs) needs to be saved from himself. The 38-year-old’s right eye was swollen shut and he was bleeding from the mouth by the time the fight was stopped when he stopped throwing punches as Fury dished out punishment.

Fury landed 205 punches, twice as many as his opponent. In 7 of 10 rounds, Fury landed over 50% of his power shots.

“Thanks to the referee, as a fighter you want to come out on your shield,” said Chisora, who has lost four of his last five fights, including a loss to Usyk in 2020. Kubrat won over Pule in July.

He may be on the verge of retirement, but Fury has plenty of big fights ahead of him. Fury said he would turn to heavyweight contender Joe Joyce at ringside if he couldn’t close a deal to face Usyk.

“I think Joe Joyce is a tough guy and Usic has great skills,” Fury said. “…Usyk is a master of boxing… All these big fights have been waiting for so long, but they can’t run anymore, they can run, but they can’t hide!”
