Wayne Rooney urges Tyson Fury to be knighted as he makes Oleksandr Usyk prediction

Wayne Rooney insists Tyson Fury will never be beaten and called for the Gypsy King to receive a knighthood.

Manchester United legend Rooney was in attendance as Fury brutally stopped Derek Chisora in a one-sided heavyweight world title fight on Saturday night. Showman Fury walked out to the famous 'Football's Coming Home' song - an ode to England's World Cup run in Qatar - before he crushed a forlorn Chisora with a ruthless barrage of searing punches at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Fury's trilogy fight with his old rival 'Del Boy' quickly became a non-contest as the undefeated champion unloaded on the veteran, causing a gruesome injury as his right eye was almost sealed shut.
