Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder had to share the spoils from the hotly anticipated fight in Los Angeles on Saturday night.
Both fighters endured 12 closely contested rounds, with Fury dropping to the ground and almost being counted out in the final round.
Ultimately, they could not be separated, meaning Wilder retains his WBC heavyweight title. But Fury did not let the draw dishearten him, as he confirmed that there would be a rematch immediately afterwards and also called out Anthony Joshua.
In the aftermath of the fight, while conducting an interview in the ring, Fury said "There's another certain heavyweight out there," before impersonating a chicken in an attempt to aggravate Joshua.
"Chicken! Chicken! Joshua, WHERE ARE YA?" Fury shouted, calling out the Watford-born heavyweight for the fight all Briish boxing fans have been dying to see.
Wilder agreed with Fury, explaining that "I 100 per cent agree with that. We're the two best in the world, and we proved it tonight, you know. You put two warriors in the ring, that want to put on a show for the fans, you get a great fight."
