Fury stops Chisora to retain WBC heavyweight title

Tyson Fury retained his World Boxing Council heavyweight title with a decisive stoppage win over British rival Derek Chisora before setting his sights on a blockbuster unification bout against Oleksandr Usyk.

The result was rarely in doubt with Fury, still unbeaten as a professional, in control from the opening bell.

And with Chisora’s eyes starting to close, referee Victor Loughlin stopped the fight nine seconds before the end of the 10th round at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

The 34-year-old now boasts a record of 33 wins from 34 fights with one draw.
