Tyson Fury won each of the nine completed rounds before the referee stepped in to end Derek Chisora's misery on Saturday night.
Fury stayed on course for a unification showdown with reigning IBF, IBO, WBO and WBA holder Oleksandr Usyk, who was ringside at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, after pummelling Chisora into a 10th-round stoppage. The 34-year-old Morecambe fighter should now get his crack at Ukrainian Usyk, and a shot at becoming the first undisputed world heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis, some time in the spring.
Afterwards Fury called out a grinning Usyk, snarling “You’re next you little b***h. Let’s get it on.” Chisora was brought in for a third bout with Fury after proposed fights with Usyk, who has been taking a break from boxing, or British rival Anthony Joshua failed to materialise. Mirror Fighting scored the fight 90-72 to Fury after the nine rounds which were completed.
