Bio And Wiki

Family, Childhood, and Education
His father John named him Tyson after the then-world undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson. His family is of Irish Traveller heritage. His younger brother Tommy Fury made his professional debut on 22 December 2018 with a trainer and two-weight world champion Ricky Hatton.
Fury left school when he was 11, and joined his father and three brothers tarmacking roads. His mother Amber had 14 pregnancies in total, but only four of the children survived. A daughter, Ramona, was born in December 1997 but died within days. This experience has stayed with Fury, who was just nine years old at the time. Fury began boxing at the age of 10. His father acted as his trainer until 2011 when his father was jailed for gouging out the eye of another Traveller due to a long-standing feud; Fury’s uncle Hughie Fury trained him up until he passed away in 2014 and then his other uncle Peter Fury, he trained Tyson in preparation and for his fight with Wladimir Klitschko. He was previously jailed for 10 years, the 47-year-old trainer once built an extensive illegal empire at the heart of the gangland drugs scene in England and also ran a drug empire from behind bars. He himself has not had trouble with the law.
Career
He made his professional debut at the age of 20 on 6 December 2008 in Nottingham, on the undercard of Carl Froch vs. Jean Pascal and live on free to air ITV4 in the UK against Hungarian fighter Bela Gyongyosi, who Fury defeated via TKO in the first round with a combination to head and body. Then until July 2009, he went on to have six more fights in the space of seven months, defeating Marcel Zeller, Daniil Peratyakto, Lee Swaby, Matthew Ellis, Scott Belshaw, and Aleksandrs Selezens all via knockout within 4 rounds. On 11 September 2009, Fury fought John McDermott for the English heavyweight title and won via a controversial points decision given by the referee after the full 10 rounds. Despite actually being a fairly close fight it seemed that the majority of people had scored the fight to McDermott, some comfortably.
As an amateur, Fury represented both England and Ireland after tracing his family lineage to relatives in Belfast and Galway. He won the ABA super-heavyweight title in 2008 before turning professional later that year. At the regional heavyweight level, he went on to hold the British and English titles twice each, as well as the European, Commonwealth, and Irish titles.
In 2015 he won the unified WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, IBO, Ring magazine, and lineal heavyweight titles by defeating long-reigning world champion Wladimir Klitschko. The victory against Klitschko earned Fury Fighter of the Year and Upset of the Year awards by The Ring. In August 2016, Fury was ranked as the world’s sixth-best active boxer, pound for pound, by BoxRec. He was stripped of the IBF title later in 2015 for failing to grant a fight against the IBF’s mandatory challenger, Vyacheslav Glazkov, having already signed a rematch clause with Klitschko.
In 2016, Fury vacated the WBA, WBO, IBO, and lineal titles after suffering from mental health issues leading to alcoholism and recreational drug use. The Ring stripped him of his last remaining title in early 2018. Later in 2018, following more than two years of inactivity, Fury returned to the ring to challenge for the WBC heavyweight title against Deontay Wilder.
