Tyson Fury has successfully defended his WBC Heavyweight boxing crown in a classic trilogy fight against Deontay Wilder in Las Vegas.
It was a fight that had it all, with both men hitting the canvas in the third and fourth rounds before Fury took control.
Ultimately, the ‘Gypsy King’s’ relentless pressure was too much for the American to withstand with the champion growing stronger the longer the fight lasted.
Having just escaping rounds nine and 10, Wilder finally succumbed to a Fury right in the penultimate 11th round to lose via knockout.

The classic battle looms as likely the last fight between the pair, with the Brit stopping the American in the two most recent fights after the first bout ended in a draw.
The win means Fury keeps his unbeaten streak alive, with his career record now standing at 32 fights, 31 wins (22 via KO), one draw and zero losses.
