The third edition also went to Tyson Fury. The heavyweight boxing world champion defeated compatriot Dereck Chisora ​​prematurely in London.

Tyson Fury remains heavyweight boxing champion. The 34-year-old Briton defeated his compatriot Dereck Chisora ​​by technical knockout on Saturday evening (December 3, 2022) in London

The referee stopped the fight in the tenth round after Chisora ​​barely started any action with a swollen right eye. In an unappealing fight in front of 60,000 spectators at Tottenham Hotspur’s football stadium, the WBC champion successfully defended his title for the third time. In previous years he had also held the world titles of the other major associations WBA, IBF and WBO.

Fury still undefeated

Fury is undefeated in 34 professional fights, 24 of which he won early. He should collect around 25 million euros for the win. In addition, there is income from television sales. Chisora ​​had to accept the 13th defeat in the 46th fight. He has now lost four of the last five clashes.

With his enormous range, the 19 centimeters taller Fury constantly put his rival under pressure and played out his superiority as a technically better boxer. Chisora ​​tried to get into melee combat, but was unsuccessful. Fury hit his rival in rows and didn’t let him develop. Chisora ​​staggered frequently, but did not fall.
