Fury scores knockout in maybe his final fight

-

LONDON — What might be the final punch of Tyson Fury’s controvers­ial boxing career smashed into the chin of Dillian Whyte, sending him to the canvas and one of his teeth flying through the air.

Fury raised his right hand in celebratio­n, knowing there would be no coming back from an uppercut seemingly felt all around Wembley Stadium.

And sure enough, there wasn’t.

With a brutal finish in the last seconds of the sixth round, Fury defeated Whyte — his fellow Briton and former sparring partner — in front of more than 94,000 fans inside England’s national soccer stadium to stay unbeaten with the 32nd win in his 33-fight profession­al career.
