Tyson fury knocked out his opponents Deontay Wilder,and was rushed to the hospital in Las Vegas.
Deontay was knocked down on three occasions in a fight of the year contender. The bout was waved off immediately by referee Russell Mora after Wilder was heavily floored for a third and final time in the 11th round.
He suffered his second straight defeat to the Brit, who retained his WBC strap with the victory, and the American will now undergo precautionary tests in hospital.
The 35-year-old will not be kept overnight, however, with his manager Shelly Finkel insisting Wilder is in good health.
Deontay himself did speak after the fight, insisting he wasn't sure what went wrong.
Though he did his best but it wasn't good enough tonight,' he said. 'I'm not sure what happened. I know that in training he did certain things, and I also knew that he didn't come in at 277 pounds to sing.
