"I want to thank Wilder, who came here tonight and fought. He is a warrior, he will be champion again ... But now I want to say that the king has returned to the throne ," Tyson Fury said after winning by Technical knockout to Deontay Wilder and become the new heavyweight king of the World Boxing Council (WBC).
The entrance of the English to the MGM Grand stadium in Las Vegas was epic: sitting on a throne, dressed in a striking red cape and a crown on his head , anticipating what it would be a night to remember.
Fury dominated the fight with as much authority as charisma. He handled the fight at his own pace and already in the third round it seemed that the thing was sentenced.

In the sixth round , another of the moments of the night took place. Fury had Wilder cornered, attacking him with his right, and his rival in a desperate attempt hugs him. At that moment, the English took out his tongue and made a gesture as if he was sucking his blood. Again, part of the show for the cameras.

And as a last issue, American Pie by Don McLean began to sing, a popular American folk song that was released in 1971.

"A long time ago, I can still remember how that music used to make me laugh," says the first stanza of the song. The "Gipsy King" invited the entire audience to follow him with the lyrics, and said goodbye with a champion belt on his shoulder.
