Tyson Fury took care of his side of the bargain.<\/p>\n
The former heavyweight champion defeated Mariusz Wach by seventh-round TKO at Max Muay Thai Stadium in Pattaya, Thailand, continuing his comeback and moving one step closer to a long-awaited fight against Anthony Joshua.<\/p>\n
Fury controlled the contest behind his jab and landed the cleaner combinations throughout the night. Wach had occasional success with his right hand, but the 46-year-old absorbed sustained punishment and was unable to come out for the eighth round.<\/p>\n
The ringside doctor examined Wach after Round 7 before the fight was stopped, giving Fury his second consecutive victory since returning from retirement.<\/p>\n
