Tommy Fury claimed a unanimous decision victory over former World's Strongest Man Eddie Hall in their exhibition bout at Manchester's AO Arena on Saturday night.
The contest, dubbed 'The Beauty vs The Beast', saw Fury overcome a staggering 108lb weight disadvantage to take the win on the Misfits Boxing card.
Guest judges Tony Bellew, Derek Chisora and Chase DeMoor scored the six-round affair 59-56, 58-56 and 57-57 in Fury's favour.
It was a unique setup from the start, with the bout featuring two-minute rounds rather than the standard three minutes typically seen in professional boxing.

Hall came out firing in the opening rounds, using his massive frame to pressure Fury and landing a solid right hand late in the first.
The strongman kept up the intensity in round two, making it tough for Fury to find any rhythm.
But it turns out all that early effort came at a cost.
By the third round, Hall was clearly feeling the pace, and Fury capitalised brilliantly, landing some sharp shots and getting himself into the contest.
Fury's movement proved key as the fight wore on, and while Hall kept swinging right until the final bell, his cardio simply couldn't keep up with the extra weight he was carrying.

After the final bell, Fury revealed the win was dedicated to someone very special.
"This was for my new baby boy, Midas," Fury said, announcing his newborn son's name for the first time.
He was full of praise for his opponent too, saying: "I've fought a lot of people; this guy can fight. He's not slow - he's fit. Thank you for taking the fight and thank you for a great night in Manchester."
Hall was gracious in defeat, admitting: "Tommy was a really hard guy to catch, and I knew that would be the case. My engine let me down in the end."
It was a family affair in Manchester, with brother Tyson Fury in attendance to cheer Tommy on from ringside.
Father John Fury was also there, working his son's corner throughout the contest, though his relationship with Tyson remains fractured.

"For now, I want to go back to my baby boy."
