Career

Before going pro in 2008, Tyson won the super-heavyweight title of the Amateur Boxing Association of England, which marked the first significant title victory of his career. Tyson competed in his first professional bout in late 2008, which took place in Nottingham, England. He used a technical knockout to win the match against Bela Gyongosi of Hungary. He entered the professional boxing ring after two consecutive victories. For the following seven months, he faced six opponents and knocked them all out in the first round of each match. He was prepared to compete for the English heavyweight title in September 2009, which would have been the greatest fight of his career to that point. He then faced Derek Chisora, an unbeaten fighter, in July 2011 for the opportunity to compete for the British and Commonwealth heavyweight crowns. The eagerly anticipated match took place in London’s renowned Wembley Stadium. Tyson prevailed in a hard-fought contest, becoming the new British and Commonwealth heavyweight title. Three million people around the world viewed the fight. Tyson successfully defended the Commonwealth heavyweight championship against the unbeaten Neven Pajkic. He forfeited his British and Commonwealth heavyweight belts to take part in a world title fight in early 2012. At Madison Square Garden in February 2013, the wrestler took part in his debut fight in the United States. He defeated Steve Cunningham in the match, moving up the I.B.F. rankings to second place. The eagerly anticipated title battle in Germany’s Esprit Arena vs. Wladimir Klitschko took place in November 2015. After a prolonged battle that lasted 12 rounds, Tyson won. As a result, he has crowned the new heavyweight champion for the W.B.A., I.B.O., W.B.O., and I.B.F. But a few days later, the I.B.F. heavyweight title was taken away from him. After that, rumors of a rematch started to circulate. He was also facing suspension from the British Boxing Board of Control. He brought a lawsuit against the suspension, which was reviewed in 2016 and 2017. In early 2018, he successfully got his license reinstated. A boxer from Albania named Sefer Seferi was the opponent when he made his comeback to the ring and was defeated. After one more victory, Fury became a challenger for the W.B.C. heavyweight belt against Deontay Wilder. In December 2018, the title match took held and was a draw. But because of how well-liked the fight was, Tyson ultimately agreed to a $100 million contract with E.S.P.N. and Top Rank. He defeated Tom Schwarz to win the Intercontinental heavyweight title in June 2019. Later in January 2020, he defeated Deontay Wilder again to win the W.B.C. heavyweight championship. Additionally, he had a brief wrestling match in the World Wrestling Entertainment promotion. Oleksandr Usyk is the first undisputed world heavyweight champion this century after he defeated Tyson Fury in 2024.
