Tyson Fury
Tyson Luke Fury (born 12 August 1988) is a British professional boxer who fights at heavyweight. In November 2015, he defeated Wladimir Klitschko to become WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, IBO and ''The Ring'' unified heavyweight champion. Having initially been denied the opportunity to fight for Ireland at the Olympic Games, he was permitted to represent both Great Britain and Ireland after tracing his family lineage to relatives in Belfast. Fury has represented both England and Ireland as an amateur, winning the ABA championship in 2008 before turning professional later that year. Currently undefeated, he is a two-time former British and English champion, a former European, Commonwealth and Irish heavyweight champion, as well as a former WBO Inter-Continental and WBO International heavyweight champion. ==Background== Born and raised in Manchester, England, Fury was born into a family of Irish Traveller heritage.
