Finished his opponent in 36 seconds. Fair play.

Daniel Dubois has done his ankle or his knee first round. Can’t stay on his feet. He’s in big trouble here.

Fair play to Dubois there. Listened to his corner and got the job done with a ruined ankle.

Someone in Dubois’s corner seems to think knee ligament damage.

Someone needs to pull Chisora out of this for his own good. Not a fair fight.

Fury’s even started pulling his punches now.

Bunce on my stream just the exactly that. He doesn't look right in the corner to me.

Not sure Popeye's chin is as good. He might be a punching bag but I am amazed he is on his feet still.

I think Chisora would’ve preferred to have been ironed out in round 4 rather than Fury backing off him and slappng him silly for another half hour instead. He should be back in his dressing room eating 5 guys by now. :)

Ref finally stops it, he was unhappy for a few rounds, not sure why he let it go on. Was hoping he'd go down and take it out of his hands.

Glorified sparring session.

Hope Del Boy got a decent pay packet and calls it a day.

Chisora way out of his depth there. He should retire.
