After a sleep-inducing undercard, the main event had little potential as a wake-up call until Fury nailed Whyte with a classic upper-cut in the 6th round. Dillian fell backwards and landed flat on his back, (aided by a push from Fury). Whyte was able to get up but as the ref was looking at him, he stumbled toward the ropes and fell against them. The ref ended it there. One of the great one-punch knockouts in history. I had Fury ahead 50-45 going into that round. He used his height, a decent jab and some good combinations to keep Whyte off of him and pile up the points. Timothy Bradly noted that Dillan had never fought a guy bigger than him and had no ability to bob and weave and try to get inside. He also kept his front leg straight, which made it difficult to keep his balance. He was wide open for the uppercut because he fought upright with his chin not tucked against his body.

After the fight, Fury attributed his victory to Jesus. It's hard to imagine Jesus caring who won a boxing match two millennia after his life. Fury then led the crowd in a sing along. He never quite said that he was retired, just that this night would be a great night to end his career on. Then he brought Francis Ngannou into the ring. He's the UFC heavyweight champion and supposedly the hardest puncher on the planet: [URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Francis_Ngannou"]Francis Ngannou - Wikipedia[/URL] They are in talks to have a confrontation under a hybrid set of rules later this year. I wonder who Jesus will favor in that one.

Meanwhile it will be up to Usyk to clean up the division, which could coax Fury out of his 'retirement'. Who else is there?
