Not only did Tyson Fury bust open Tom Schwarz’s nose, knock him down, and win via second-round TKO in their fight on Saturday night, but he showcased some next-level defense from a heavyweight.
Fury used his exceptional head movement to avoid about six straight punches from Schwarz. Take a look:

Here’s a look at some of the highlights, including the knockdown that led to the stoppage:
