Tyson Fury

Tyson Fury ended the decade long Heavyweight title reign of Wladimir Klitschko by winning a 12-round unanimous decision at the Esprit Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany.

It was a jab-fest early with not much going on.  Fury was slightly more aggressive.  In round five, Klitschko was cut under the left eye from an accidental headbutt.

In round nine, Klitschko landed a big right but he was out done as he was drilled with punishing left hook.  It was more of the same as Fury’s movement would befuddle Klitschko.  Klitschko was cut in three places including around both eyes and his forehead.  Fury landed a a huge left hook in round eleven, but that round advantage was done in by Fury being docked a point for hitting behind the head.  Klitschko had his best round in the final round as he got in some good left hooks but it was too little, too late as Fury lifted the titles and ended the decade reign of Klitschko.

Fury won by scores of 116-111 and 115-112 twice and is now 25-0.  Klitschko is 64-4.
