Video Highlights Description After three eliminators and one postponement, Tyson Fury finally has his shot at WBA Super, WBO and IBF world champion Wladimir Klitschko - exclusively live on Sky Sports Box Office.
Fury has provided relentless entertainment in the build-up to this fight but as fight week progressed, the Mancunian challenger's demeanour was at times uncharacteristically stern. Klitschko, needless to say, retained his customary cool throughout.

Result DescriptionBritain's Tyson Fury pulled off one of the great boxing upsets as he outpointed Wladimir Klitschko to become heavyweight champion of the world.
It was a dour and often messy fight but Fury, courtesy of his superior boxing skills, fully deserved to be awarded a unanimous decision.
Ukrainian Klitschko, whose nine-year reign as champion was brought to an end, simply could not work the challenger out and did not do enough to win.
Fury, who was awarded the fight 115-112, 115-112, 116-111 on the judges' scorecards, is now the WBA, IBF and WBO champion.
The 27-year-old Manchester fighter is only Britain's fifth bona fide heavyweight world champion after Bob Fitzsimmons, Lennox Lewis, Frank Bruno and David Haye.
Herbie Hide and Henry Akinwande both held WBO versions of the title at a time when the organisation's title holders were not widely recognised as genuine world champions.
