  2. 'Fury untouchable, Wilder fearless'published at 07:41 British Summer Time 10 October 2021

    Boxing expert on BBC Breakfast

    When he is determined, he is untouchable. When he went down in the fourth those were heavy knockdowns. His eyes were glazed in the fifth but he managed to turn it around. He is an extraordinary human.

    The doctor went up four times to have a look in Wilder's face and asked if he could continue and four times Wilder pushed him away.

    It was a rollercoaster and the reason it got to the 11th round was because of Wilder's guts, heart and desire.

    He might not be everyone's cup of tea but he is brave and he is fearless.

  3. 'There is no more Deontay Wilder'published at 07:38 British Summer Time 10 October 2021

    Tyson Fury, speaking to BBC Sport: "I am very proud of my performance and the victory tonight. I was given this victory by god again and I am really thankful for it. There were some shaky moments in there but I never lost faith. I continued on and persevered and got that single punch knock out. As soon as I landed it I jumped on the ropes. I knew he was not getting back up from that."

    How did you get up from the floor in round four? "Determination and god's plan. He was a very capable opponent tonight. It was a different fight from the first two but the outcome was the same.

    "It was a great trilogy and you need a good dance partner for trilogies and he has been a good dance partner but there is no rematch clause, it is done. Wilder is done. There is no more Deontay Wilder."

    It is the best fight I have seen in the flesh and the best I have ever watched on film. I am not sure how to describe it. I was maybe five feet from the ring. I sat there with my jaw on my chin.

    Rocky is like the Teletubbies compared to what you witnessed tonight!

    It was extraordinary, it was quite amazing and a privilege to watch it.

  19. 'It is going to be a tough task to decrypt Tyson Fury'published at 06:44 British Summer Time 10 October 2021

    Richie Woodhall on BT Sport: "The worst thing you can do against Tyson Fury is let him get back up after you have got him down. Because his mindset steps up and then he is even more difficult to deal with.

    David Haye on BT Sport: "It is going to be a very tough task to find a way to decrypt Tyson Fury for sure."

  20. What next for Fury?published at 06:40 British Summer Time 10 October 2021

    Tyson Fury will now likely look to Oleksandr Usyk for a chance to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis 21 years ago.

    That fight may have to wait, however. The Ukrainian looks set to face Anthony Joshua in a rematch first to see if the Briton can win back his WBF, IBF and WBO crowns.
