Whyte was guilty of swinging wildly in the next couple, while Fury settled into his work and ominously began to find his range, connecting with a couple of decent right hands on Whyte.

Tensions boiled over in the fourth and Whyte lashed back with an elbow, unhappy after picking up a cut above his right eye following a clash of heads.

Water then appeared to be thrown in the Fury corner as the pair again had to be separated after both delivered some blows to the back of the head.

Whyte was rattled in fifth, throwing punches off balance, and he eventually walked into a devastating knockout blow in the sixth

Tyson Fury speaking after the bout hinted at retirement in keeping with a promise made to his wife Paris after the Fury-Wilder 3 to quit the sport.
