London’s famous Wembley Stadium Arena vibrated to the sound of roaring fans cheering their favorite fighter on last weekend’s fight night. At the main event, Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte resulted in a Round 6 KO in front of over 90.000 spectators with a massive right uppercut that put Whyte in a horizontal position and see stars just as the referee came in to put an end to it.
But that’s only a glimpse of what happened on fight night. Because after you read our post, you will have a complete grasp of all the technical aspects concerning this bout between two Brits that fought each other with everything they had. All in all, it was a great night for Britain’s boxing because regardless of who you cheered for, the title stayed in the UK.
Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte Results
The result turns out to be Whyte’s first loss via knockout since Alexander Povetkin defeated the man via KO in summer 2020. For the winner, Tyson Fury, his record now goes to 31-0-1. Meanwhile, Whyte’s record is 28-3. The fight concluded during Round 6, more specifically at 2:59.
The Fight By The Numbers
Tyson Fury dominated the fight in every aspect, and the statistics prove it. Moreover, the numbers paint a very faint Dillian Whyte: The man only landed 29 punches on Tyson, while Fury furiously landed 76 effective punches on Dillian with great volume and enormous accuracy.
When it comes to the power punch, Fury dominates again, with 47% landed over a meager 21% landed by Whyte. And when we break down the jabs, Fury leads once more because of his enormous reach and height. Whenever Whyte tried to close in, he got one in the face. And that made him clinch and get a pummeling. And it only takes so many punches to knock out a man.
Round One Was The Quieter One
The initial round was the quietest round as it was the round the fighters took to see what the other one was going to go about. We saw a quiet Tyson that was going to unleash the fury —pun intended— upon Whyte, who came out fighting like a Southpaw for some reason we don’t know.
The moment the bell rang for the second, third, and consecutive rounds, the intensity with which Fury started punching was just massive. Once again, height and reach defeated a slow, short and inferior opponent who didn’t know how to approach or land a hard punch on the champion.
The Knockout
The knockout went something like this: Fury was punching Dillian Whyte, that stepped in for a couple of punches with one hell of a jab. After that, Fury landed the massive uppercut in the chin that knocked out Whyte. The man fell backward on the mat and landed like a sack of potatoes! Then, the referee stepped in. Whyte tried to stand up and managed to do it, he staggered his way into the corner, and that was it. Referee Mark Lyson called the fight for Fury. Check out the knockout in the video below!

Is Tyson Fury Retiring After This?
We’ve heard Tyson Fury say it, as the fighter said he plans to retire. But how can we believe him? He’s a boxer being a boxer, saying things for flare. These kinds of sportsmen say that kind of thing all the time for clout, and in the end, they just keep lacing their gloves over and over for years to come.
And after that win, he might just as well keep on going. Indeed, after winning, he was asked by the press whether or not that was his last fight, and he admitted that it might be his last fight.
