Tyson Fury came out firing on all cylinders against Tom Schwarz in Las Vegas, ending the fight in round two by technical knockout.
His German opponent only managed to land a couple of punches as Fury danced around the ring, landing shot after shot against Schwarz. In fact, when Fury did take a shot, it only seemed to spur him on.
Fury knocked Schwarz down to one knee in the second round, and then ended the fight soon after with a flurry of blows, forcing the referee to call it off.
The fight was all Tyson Fury, easily taking the first round and then ending the fight early by technical knockout in round two
Ever the showman, Tyson Fury made a quick change in his ring walk and came out in a star spangled banner robe and top hat
The giant screens showed Fury and his wife Paris arriving early, with him then rearranging the pillows on the massage table in his dressing room and settling back for a nap. This caused wry amusement in the half empty arena. Most of the good folk here were probably too young to remember the old sepia photographs of Muhammad Ali sleeping in the hour or two before fights but they saw the funny side.
Then came a video of Schwarz and his wife leaning across his dressing room table, with him yawning widely while she soothingly massaged his hands. That created some misgivings among those who had paid for tickets.
Was the German here to fight or fold? To bid for glory or go
