    ACTION SHOTS – TOMMY FURY

    The action was too quick for the camera

    The referee waved it off in the second round

    Fury remains undefeated as a pro boxer

    ALL EYES TO CANELO!
    Tonight’s UK show has come to a close – but your weekend fill of boxing is far from over.
    Mexican legend Canelo Alvarez headlines a show in the US when he defends his world titles against rank outsider Avni Yildirim.
    SunSport will be blogging the entire show so make sure to check back to the website for more heavy hitting!

    AHMED WINS IT!
    Judges give it even 95-95, 96-95, 96-94 by majority decision.

    WE GO TO THE JUDGES’ SCORECARDS…
    Decent little scrap, Ahmed definitely won the earlier rounds, but Khademi’s classier boxing told as the rounds wore on.
    Either way it SHOULD be a close one… but this is boxing judging.

    ROUND 10 – FINAL ROUND
    Both corners tell their men how important this round could be.
    Ahmed perhaps been more aggressive, but Khademi boxed better in there.
    Both boxers trading leather here, this round could really swing it. Lovely solid left from Khademi as he lands the classier shots.

    ROUND NINE
    Ahmed having less success now – maybe he thinks the KO dream won’t happen.
    Khademi lands some shots that see Ahmed turned around looking like he wanted the ref to intervene – he didn’t.

    ROUND EIGHT
    Richie Woodhall has it dead level 67-67 as we head into the eighth.
    Khademi looks a bit ‘too’ relaxed in there and Ahmed can land when he wants.

    ROUND SEVEN
    Ahmed does fancy this here. Looks busier than Khademi here and whipping shots in.
    Khademi might be finishing the round the stronger but this is one close fight.

    ROUND SIX
    Brilliant work from Ahmed late on, probably sneaks here.
    Khademi did the better work in the early part of it but Ahmed comes on strong.
    Ahmed’s corner tell him to ‘get him out of there’.

    ROUND FIVE
    Khademi showing some good defence as Ahmed really applying pressure here.
    Is the champ struggling with the pace here?

    ROUND FOUR
    Ahmed’s corner begging their man to ‘work’ – they clearly fancy the upset here.
    Khademi finding his range far better now, but seems like he wants too much time and space after landing.

    ROUND THREE
    Little to choose between the two.
    It’s not boring by any stretch – but hasn’t quite set alight as many expected.

    ROUND TWO
    Again both boxers going toe-to-toe.
    Body shots landed throughout, Ahmed swinging in some good overhand rights.

    ROUND ONE
    Both boxers happy to trade, Ahmed not giving Khademi the space to operate at all.
    Some decent success on the inside.

    UP NEXT – MAIN EVENT – AHMED VS KHADEMI
    Fair bit of interest around this fight.
    Khademi escaped the Taliban to end up in East London.

    WELL, THAT WAS BRUTAL…

    JOHN FURY
    “He is only a novice, and he’s done that to him.
    “He is in a no-win situation, he has come off Love Island, people can expect too much from no boxing experience.
    “We have a small circle and will bring him on right.
    “He is a marketing dream, he is a handsome fella and he can punch. I will upgrade him when he needs.
    “I got one king now, I have two coming, if people can’t see his potential they need to go to Specsavers, this kid has got it all.”
    On Tyson
    “He is motivated. Forget how he looks, he is as strong as three men. I am fat, fat as a pig yet I can run 10 mile.
    “Fat wins world titles and my son proved it.”

    TOMMY FURY SPEAKING NOW… AND DAD JOHN
    “I am trying different things, learning on the way.
    “I am in the public eye, no matter what I do everyone will have an opinion, as long as my family see I don’t care about anyone’s opinions.
    “Boxing is the hardest sport in the world, but at the end of the way I am a novice boxer. I have my dad there guiding me, I can’t go wrong.”

    FURY WINS – TKO ROUND TWO
    Victory once again for Tommy Fury.
    2mins 5secs of round two, Williams was counted out. TNT Fury victorious.

    ROUND TWO – IT’S ALL OVER
    Williams was warned for ‘running away’ by the referee.
    A minute later he was floored by a quick combo before it was waved off.
    Not sure what we learnt there…

    ROUND ONE – WILLIAMS DOWN AGAIN!
    Outsider hits the deck again, gumshield is out.
    Fights on – but desperate to grab. Can he make the end of the first round?
    YES! A victory in itself for Williams.

    ROUND ONE
    WILLIAMS DOWN!
    Great body punch from Fury with more than a minute to go.

    TOMMY FURY VS SCOTT WILLIAMS – HERE WE GO!!
    Both from Manchester – who will reign supreme?
    We could hazard a guess…

    FURY ON RINGWALK
    Here he comes, the man who has had just over seven minutes of pro action.
    How many of his 3.2m Instagram followers are watching here?!

    HE’S UP NEXT – TOMMY FURY!
    The younger brother of WBC heavyweight king Tyson and Love Island star Tommy Fury is out next.
    We aren’t anticipating a long night…
