Tyson Fury remains heavyweight boxing champion. The 34-year-old Briton defeated his compatriot Dereck Chisora by technical knockout on Saturday night in London. The referee stopped the fight in the tenth round following Chisora barely started any action with a swollen right eye.
In an unappealing fight in front of 60,000 spectators at Tottenham Hotspur’s 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 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.
