Tyson Fury v Otto Wallin: British fighter Wins after bloodied fight

Tyson Fury the 31 year aged British fighter won against Otto Wallin in a bloodied fight on the basis of points after over nine rounds of fight.

Tyson Fury has retained his unbeaten record in a dramatic bout in Las Vegas.

Sweden’s Wallin unexpectedly gave a tough time and a deep wound above Tyson’s right eye in the third round creating a suspense and deep silence at the T-Mobile Arena.

Tyson Fury was taken for medical care to hospital after the fight to have micro-surgery on the cuts – one above the eye and one on the eye-lid.

“It was a great fight,” said Fury afterwards. “I got caught on the eye and that changed the fight. For the majority, I could not see out of the eye, then there was a clash of heads and I got cut again.

“It was a good 12 rounds, he was tough. It’s all heart and determination – if I can keep going I will do. He was 20-0 and didn’t know how to lose, but I was the better man.”

Wallin said: “I did everything I could, I tried my best and Tyson is a great champion. Nobody can question my heart or question that I’m a good fighter.”

A heavy shot from Wallin in the 12th offered one more threat at the end of a tussle which thrilled those in the arena. With Fury bloodied and grinding out shots, cries of “Tyson, Tyson, Tyson” poured down to ringside, dragging more from him.
