By Oli Smith - The hype built up over the weeks as British Heavyweight up and comer Tyson Fury told everyone who would listen that he is the future of Heavyweight boxing. The Brentwood Centre, Essex would be the venue that Fury’s first real test would take place. Having won all his seven bouts by knockout and boxing only 16 rounds in his career, Fury kept to form in the pre-fight build up, agitating both opponent and opposing promoter. The far more experienced McDermott looked to defend his English title in his home town. Taking umbrage to insults hurled his way, this wouldn’t just be a mandatory defense, it was personal. [details]

I thought McDermott won but some of the rounds you could've scored either way, I had McDermott by a 2 or 3 rounds. McDermott has been robbed before and I had a feeling it would happen again. We learned that Fury doesn't have alot of power but a good chin.Comment
