Tyson Fury vs Arslanbek Makhmudov LIVE: Round-by-round updates and scorecard as the Gypsy King makes his return – plus bloodied Conor Benn beats Regis Prograis

Rather than a knock-out, says Andre Ward. Fury has tamed Makhmudov, and got the rounds in to match. Superior strategy, and some punishing punches.

Makhmudov tries to hang on, but Fury looks so much fresher.

‘Come here!’ Fury appears to say, stretching out his arms just before the bell, but he still can’t be caught.

The bell rings, and the two fighters hug. Fury appears to say, ‘that was fun’, to the Russian. For him, maybe!

And now…

Daily Mail Sport’s JEFF POWELL gives his verdict:

Who would have thought this would go to the last round. But here we are. A few more uppercuts to rattle the Russian. A couple more right hooks for Fury to ride. And so to a victory as wide as the Tottenham Hotspur defence. Eleven rounds to one, surely.
