Tyson Fury became heavyweight world champion in a brutal title rematch in Las Vegas on Saturday night, proving that he’s wilder than Wilder.

“A fighting man tastes blood,” Tyson Fury said ahead of his bout with Deontay Wilder. “I want to taste it, rub it, punch it and mix it up.”

It seems that he really did mean it, as he appeared to lick the blood off Wilder’s neck on Saturday night.

The spectacular showdown, where the WBC heavyweight world champion title was at stake, ended with a seven-round TKO for Fury, but the madness didn’t stop there.

After paying tribute to his opponent and thanking Jesus for the victory, the Gypsy King sang a touching rendition of Don McLean’s American Pie.
