Born and raised in Manchester, Fury weighed just 1lb at birth after being born three months premature. His father John named him after Mike Tyson. From Irish traveller heritage, the“Gypsy King” is undefeated in 28 professional fights, winning 27 with 19 knockouts, and drawing once. His most famous victory came in 2015, when he stunned longtime champion Wladimir Klitschko to win the WBA, IBF and WBO world heavyweight titles. He was forced to vacate the belts because of issues with drugs, alcohol and mental health, and did not fight again for more than two years. Most thought he was done with boxing forever. Until an amazing comeback fight with Deontay Wilder in December 2018. It was an instant classic, ending in a split decision tie. Outside of the ring, Tyson Fury is a mental health ambassador. He donated his million dollar purse from the Deontay Wilder fight to the homeless. This book is dedicated to the cause of mental health awareness.

He’s got an All-Star list of victories. So they’re gonna think ‘. damn he beat all these guys?’ People are gonna know. He should be in the top 5, top 3 and stuff.” - Mike Tyson on Evander Holyfield (Chasing Tyson [3]) The 2015 documentary “Chasing Tyson” [3] describes the career of 4-time world heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield. One of the central themes of this film was how due to his low-key style and humble attitude, the boxing public did not accept Holyfield as a top fighter deserving of the accolade “world heavyweight champion”. However, former Heavyweight Champion and widely accepted all-time great Mike Tyson is quoted above at the end of the film, making the case for Holyfield’s greatness. Although not particularly flashy in or outside the ring, Holyfield’s achievement in the sport of boxing may be measured in an objective way: by the list of quality boxers he has defeated. This argument is reminiscent of Google’s PageRank algorithm [2, 10]. PageRank is an algorithm that assigns to web pages a value, based on the web pages who link to it and their value, that is receiving an incoming link from a high-value website carries more value than a link from a low-level one.

  • Christine Ebersole
    CHRISTINE EBERSOLE Christine grew up in Winnetka, Illinois, where she discovered her passion for acting in high school. Upon graduation, Christine attended MacMurray College in Jacksonville, Illinois, before moving to New York to study acting for another two years at the famed American Academy of Dramatic Arts. In 1976, she appeared in her first Broadway play, Angel Street. She went on to star in such Broadway hits as I Love My Wife with Joanna Gleason and James Naughton; Hal Prince’s On the 20th Century with Kevin Kline and comic legend Imogene Coca and put her indelible imprint on the role of Ado Annie, the girl who “Cain’t Say No,” in Agnes de Mille’s revival of Oklahoma! She starred Camelot opposite Richard Burton and in Stephen Sondheim’s non-musical mystery, Getting Away With Murder, as well as The Paper Mill Playhouse’s production of “Paper Moon.” Off-Broadway, she starred in a critically acclaimed production of Chekhov’s Three Sisters with Dianne Wiest and Sam Waterson. At a time when a single critic’s bad review could close a show, that was exactly what befell the ill-fated Harrigan n’ Hart, which closed after three days and propelled Christine to Hollywood to pursue her burgeoning film and television career full-time.
