Soon enough, Fury used his wit to reverse a few of Braun's moves which shifted the momentum in The Gypsy King's favour. Fury made the most of his opportunities as he kept landing precise blows on Braun to keep momentum on his side. Braun came up with a few comebacks but could not do much as Fury kept getting back on his feet. Finally, it was a right-handed punch to Braun's face that had Braun land outside the ring - knocked out.

Strowman left the arena with very evident disappointment on his face as Fury took no time to get back to his feet and raise his hands in victory.
