WAYNE ROONEY called on Tyson Fury to be knighted.

And the former England captain backed him to sir-ve up a battering of Oleksandr Usyk.

Tyson Fury battered Derek Chisora over ten rounds to defend his WBC world title

Wayne Rooney threw his support behind the Gypsy King

Rooney, 37, was ringside to watch Fury stop Derek Chisora in the tenth round at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium last night.

His heavy hits proved too much for the Londoner to handle and the referee waved it off to stop the damage.

Keen boxer Rooney, who was knocked out in his kitchen by Phil Bardlsey, was impressed by what he saw and made the glowing recommendation.

He scored a record 253 goals during 13 successful seasons at Manchester United – the team Fury loves.

But the roles were reversed as Rooney threw his support behind the 6ft 9in Gypsy King.

The DC United manager told talkSPORT: “He’s the best we’ve seen for a long time.

“I don’t think anyone will beat him.

“I think he’s an absolute legend, what he’s done for boxing. He’s entertaining.

“His skills are incredible. His mentality is incredible.

“If I’m being honest, I probably think he should be knighted.

“Because he hasn’t been afraid to go abroad. 

“He’s won titles abroad. Defended them abroad.

“He epitomizes everything that boxing is.”

Fury, 34, took his pro boxing record to 33-0-1 on Saturday night as he comfortably saw off Chisora to retain his WBC world heavyweight title.

As expected, it was a completely one-sided contest as the Morecambe giant toyed with his Zimbabwe-born rival before it was eventually and relatedly stopped.

Now the focus is on the unification bout with the WBA, WBO and IBF champ Usyk, who beat Anthony Joshua twice.

And Fury wasted no time in calling out Usyk in the ring – before Rooney’s vote of confidence that he will never lose.

Fury said: “Where’s Usyk the rabbit? Eh rabbit?

“Usyk you’re next you little b****. You are next. Me and you next. You’re next. Rabbit! P****! 

“15st little midget bodybuilder. Well, I ain’t a bodybuilder, I’m going to write you off.

“I already done one Ukrainian in Klitschko didn’t I? And I’ll do you as well, gappy teeth!

“You ugly little man. Lets get it on b****.

“You may laugh now but I’ll end this lil sucker. I’ll end you.

“You little sucker. What are you gonna do? You’re gonna do f*** all you little sausage.”

However, that mouthwatering bout may need to be put on hold because of a right elbow injury for Fury that could require surgery.
