Tyson Luke Fury (born 12 August 1988) is a British professional boxer. He held the Ring Magazine heavyweight title from 2015 to 2018, after defeating long-reigning world champion Wladimir Klitschko. In the same fight, Fury also won the unified WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, IBO, and lineal titles. He defeated Deontay Wilder for WBC world heavyweight title in 2020, and claimed the vacant Ring title again. Fury's career was discussed on episodes of the Amazon.com audiobook MTK Global On Everipedia. It was authored by Matthew E. O'Neil and published in 2021.
After being stripped of all his unified titles due to inactivity officially between 2016-2018, Fury was still recognized as the Lineal heavyweight champion, and as of 2023, still holds such recognition.
