Newly crowned unbeaten British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (15-0, 10 KO’s) seems to know his limitations after beating Dereck Chicora (14-1, 9 KO’s) by an impressive 12 round unanimous decision last Saturday night at the Wembley Arena, in Wembley, London, England. Instead of going after IBF/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, who has already said he would be interested in facing the winner of the Chisora-Fury bout, Fury is eying a fight with 40-year-old Martin Rogan for the Irish heavyweight title. Following that, Fury wants to defend his British/Commonwealth titles against one of the contenders and then go after European Boxing Union (EBU) heavyweight champion Alexander Dimitrenko. Presumably, the 6’7” Dimitrenko would be a warm-up for Wladimir, because he fights somewhat in the same style as him. Fury dominated a heavy looking Chisora on Saturday night, beating him by the judges’ scores of 117-112, 117-112, and 118-111. Fury had problems in the 2nd round when Chisora opened up with a number of powerful hooks that appeared to have Fury slightly hurt, although he would say that he was never hurt. Fury was forced to hold on slow Chisora down. After that round, Chisora looked gassed out and spent the majority of the remainder of the fight with his back against the ropes fighting only sparingly.
