The Ukrainian put on a dominant display in the latter rounds, in-front of a packed out arena in Saudi Arabia, to clinch WBC title and unify his WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO belts.

Usyk had looked troubled mid-way through the fight after appearing to get rocked by a punch from Fury but made an impressive recovery to come back and win the bout.
