War, however, managed to survive the onslaught that came back his way but was dazed as he made his way back to the corner.
Sensing blood, Fury cameout aggressive in the third and looked to take out the challenger.
A big right hook found its mark and put Chisora on the back foot once again. Fury couldn’t miss but opted to npt to punc himself out in pursuit of the stoppage.
A nother beautiful counter uppercut found the chin of Chisora and wobbled him to the point of collapsing on the canvas, albeit with the champion on top of him.
A good overhand right was the best Chisora offered in the fourth but Fury brushed it off like was nothing.
Fury was more than content to look for the perfect shot to close the show in the fifth as he had no regard for the attacks coming his way.
A beautiful double jab, straight right midway through the round snapped back the head of Chisora and drew a huge reaction from the crowd.
The battle-weathered Chisora offered little threat in the sixth and proved to be nothing but a punching bag for Fury – who barely took a breath as he went back to his corner.
Fury’s right uppercut hurt Chisora early in the seven and prompted the challenger to launch a flurry of hooks to the body and head.
Fury rolled with the punches and landed several stinging shots inside the clinch. And he punctuated the round with a big step-in straight right hand seconds before the bell.
Fury turned up the pressure in the eighth and landed several sickening shots in a row but he somehow survived. And he somehow managed to on his feet.
Rounds nine and ten provided somewhat of a lull in the one-sided action – and midway through the latter stanza – ref Victor Laughlin mercifully called a halt to proceedings.
