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.

    BOXING LEGEND AND UNDISPUTED HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION KLITSCHKO TO TAKE ON UNDEFEATED JENNINGS LIVE AND EXCLUSIVE ON BOXNATION ON APRIL 25TH LONDON (March 27) – BoxNation are delighted to announce they will be screening undisputed heavyweight world champion Wladimir Klitschko’s April 25th fight with leading contender Bryant Jennings live and exclusive. The Ukrainian superstar has enjoyed a 10-year title reign at the top of boxing’s glamour division but will now put his WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO belts on the line against the undefeated Jennings at the legendary Madison Square Garden in New York. Klitschko will return to fight on US soil for the first time since February 2008, with the bout set to have high British interest with Manchester heavyweight Tyson Fury mandated to fight the winner later this year. Overcoming Jennings will be no easy task for 39-year-old Klitschko, with the Philadelphian, who has a three-inch reach advantage, hoping to become the first unified American heavyweight champion in more than 13 years. After building up an unbeaten record of 19 straight wins, 10 coming by way of knockout, Jennings is confident that he can finally become the man to dethrone Klitschko, who has won 63 fights, 53 by knockout, with only 3 losses – the last coming over a decade ago. “I do have great respect for Bryant Jennings and his achievements. He has good movement in the ring and good technique. I know this will be a tough challenge,” said Klitschko. “I am extremely happy to fight in New York City again. I had my first unification fight there and a lot of great heavyweight matches have taken place at Madison Square Garden.

  • Rethinking the Use of Antitrust Law in Combat Sports
    Journal of Legal Aspects of Sport, 2018, 28, 63-96 https://doi.org/10.18060/22331 Rethinking the Use of Antitrust Law in Combat Sports Jason J. Cruz* Introduction This article will examine the application of antitrust laws in combat sports. Specifically, it will look at three recent cases involving lawsuits brought under the Sherman Act Section 1 and 2.1 First, this article will examine the January 2017 dismissal by a Los Angeles federal court of a lawsuit filed by Golden Boy Promotions (“Golden Boy”) against Al Haymon and his business entities, which started Premier Boxing Champions (“PBC”).2 It will also examine Top Rank Boxing’s (“Top Rank”) similar lawsuit against Haymon, which was settled the previous fall. Finally, it will evaluate the ongoing lawsuit between several former fighters and the Ultimate Fighting Championships (“UFC”). While each lawsuit has its own set of facts, the conditions and marketplace for combat sports is unique and the application of antitrust law has been used sparingly by boxers and promoters. These three cases filed in the last three years reflect the changing market for boxing and MMA. The paper will look at the results of the Top Rank and Golden Boy lawsuits and determine whether those cases shed any light on the outcome of the UFC case. It will also explore whether there are alternatives to regulating combat sports outside of the use of the antitrust laws. One legal commentator has opined that a federal commission would aid the monopolistic structure of a sports league. But, does that apply to individual sports like MMA or boxing? This paper will explore this issue as well as determine whether organizing fighters would address the issues complained of in the lawsuits.

KATHERINE FIGUEROA* In 2010, Sergio “Maravilla” Martinez was stripped from his WBC middleweight title belt that was then easily handed over to a boxing favorite. In 2015, two big promotional companies, Top Rank Inc. and Golden Boy Promotions, filed similar claims against manager and advisor Al Haymon accusing him of unfair and anticompetitive business practices. These incidents make one long-standing point clear: professional boxing’s current structure is an abyss of deception and corruption. Corruption is not only harmful to those intended to be harmed; corruptive practices also diminish the quality, creditability, and integrity of the sport. However, corruption in the sport of boxing is but a novel issue.
