Tyson Fury's cousin spent final hours watching Anthony Joshua before brutal stabbing

Tyson Fury's cousin spent his final hours laughing and joking with pals as they watched Anthony Joshua's defeat by Oleksandr Usyk, before he was brutally stabbed to death.

Rico Burton, 31, was stabbed in the neck in Altrincham just three hours after Usyk retained his world heavyweight titles with a split decision victory over Joshua, Fury's domestic rival.

Paramedics couldn't save Rico but a 17-year-old boy who was also attacked remains in hospital suffering from serious injuries.
