By brutally dispatching Derek Chisora, Tyson Fury successfully defended his WBC heavyweight championship and lined up a prospective uncontested matchup with Oleksandr Usyk.
At Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, in front of 59,769 spectators, Fury, 34, kept his undefeated streak alive.
As a result of the dominant champion regularly hurting fellow Briton Chisora, 38, the referee stopped the one-sided fight in the tenth round.
IBF, IBO, WBO, and WBA belt holder Usyk attended ringside in London.
It was Chisora's fourth defeat in the previous five fights, making it his 13th defeat overall in 46 matches.
Earlier this week, the pair shook hands and promised to stand toe-to-toe in the opening three minutes with Chisora promising “the best first round the heavyweight game has ever seen”.
And, in front of an incredible atmosphere – despite the cold conditions at an outdoor December night event in London – the two fighters tried to provide the entertainment they had promised.
But the fight did prove a mismatch as Fury was a level above his opponent and can now look forward to a potential undisputed heavyweight showdown with Ukrainian Usyk in 2023.
As Usyk confronted him at the ropes, Fury added: “Usyk, you’re next, 15 stone little body building midget. I’ve done one Ukrainian, [Wladimir] Klitchsko, let’s get it on.”
As Joyce then showed up, Fury said: “I’m saying Joe Joyce, a brilliant fighter, he deserves a title fight. If the rabbit [Usyk] doesn’t fight, we’ll fight at Wembley.”
