Fury upsets Klitschko to win WBA/WBO/IBF heavyweight title

Tyson Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) did what he claimed he would do as he earned a twelve round unanimous decision over WBA/IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 54 KOs) on Saturday night in front a crowd of 55K at the ESPIRIT Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany.

The fight was a slow and uneventful. Fury essentially nullified Fury who was forced into having to counter the taller, Fury, which he couldn’t seem to do. ITRBoxing.com scored the bout 118-109 giving Fury all , but one round as well as point deduction Fury received in the 11th round that saw him lose a point for rabbit punching.

Klitschko tried to rally late, but it was to no avail in the end, Tyson Fury is the new lineal world heavyweight champion. The scores for the bout were 115-112, 115-112, 116-111.
