Tyson Fury on Sunday morning returned to winning ways in spectacular fashion as he put on a punch-perfect display to stop Tom Schwarz at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas in the second round.

 

According to Skysports, Fury was a class above the previously unbeaten German, dropping his man in the second before referee Kenny Bayless ended things later in the round after a series of unanswered shots.

 

Speaking after the match, Fury said although his next fight will be in September, he was determined to hunt down Deontay Wilder.

 

"The key tonight was to enjoy myself, using the jab, I was slipping and sliding in there with my hands down. I switched to southpaw and caught him with a straight left that would've put anyone away.

 

"I put on an extra 12lbs and I really feel it, I haven't had three years out of the ring this time, just a few months. I'm back, the lineal champion, bring them all on!

 

"I came here to put on a show for Las Vegas, I hope everyone enjoyed it as much as I did.

 

"We have got September 21 or October 5 for my next fight and then, next year, we will hunt down Deontay Wilder and make him give me that green belt."
