Tyson Fury has knocked out American’s Deontay Wilder in the seventh round to win the WBC Heavyweight championship title belt.

With the victory, Britain’s Fury has thus become the world heavyweight champion for the second time.

Fury produced a brutal and brilliant masterclass to batter Deontay Wilder to a seventh-round stoppage. He floored the American twice in the fight before Wilder’s corner threw in the towel in the Seventh round.

The Briton dominated the fight from round one to the end, with Wilder not in the contest all through the period.

Wilder has no answer to the superior fighting prowess of Fury and he was outclassed in every department.

Wilder was not like the ‘Bronze Bomber’ he claimed to be in this fight, but Fury was truly the Gypsy King.

The American was first floored by Fury in the third round and later in the fifth round.

The American has now lost his unbeaten run, which ended after his 44th fight, while Fury remains unbeaten after 30 fight.
