FURY CLEARS DOUBT

Britain'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.

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.
