Tyson Fury beats Makhmudov

Fury dominated the 12-round contest, showing little ring rust after a 16-month absence from professional boxing.

Anthony Joshua, who was watching from ringside, appeared hesitant to commit to the fight immediately, leading to a tense exchange between the two heavyweights.

Promoter Turki Alalshikh has expressed strong interest in making the superfight happen, which could potentially be broadcast on Netflix later this year.

Fury has threatened to retire for good if the Joshua bout is not finalized, while fans remain divided on whether the match has lost its luster after years of negotiation delays.
