WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury claimed a split decision victory over former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou despite being knocked down in the third round. One judge scored it 95-94 in favour of Ngannou, two gave it to Fury at 96-93 and 95-94.
"That definitely wasn't in the script," Fury told TNT Sports.
"I got caught round the back of the head for the knockdown. I wasn't hurt. I got up and got back to my boxing.
"He's an awkward man and a good puncher and I respect him a lot. He's given me one of my toughest fights of the last 10 years."
