The undefeated 6' 9" Fury (18-0, 13 KOs), fighting out of Cheshire, UK, is the reigning Irish heavyweight champion, who is rated No. 6 by the World Boxing Council ("WBC"). The charismatic 24-year-old giant has defeated four previously unbeaten opponents - Dereck Chisora (14-0), Neven Pajkic (16-0), Marcelo Luiz Nascimento (13-0) and Rich Power (12-0) - in his last seven fights. Tyson Fury, ranked in the top 10 worldwide by The Ring Magazine and promoted by Hennessy Sports, is coming off an impressive win. In April, Fury scored a third-round technical knockout win over Martin Rogan to clinch the Irish title. Tyson faces a tough fight as he takes on popular American brawler and proven ...

Price 12-0, 10 KOs), a 2008 Olympic bronze medal winner, defends his British Boxing Board of Control ("BBB of C") British heavyweight crown against veteran Sam Sexton (15-2, 6 KOs) in the 12-round main event that's also for the vacant Commonwealth title. The undefeated Price is an imposing figure in the ring, standing 6' 8" and weighing 245 pounds.  He is coming off of an impressive BBB of C British heavyweight title-winning performance last January against veteran John McDermott (26-7), in which Price floored his outclassed opponent three times in the opening round.  As a prelude for Saturday afternoon's heavyweight championship match b...

After a shy and somewhat ponderous opening, Fury floored Rogan with a quick left in the 3rd and then polished off the Northern Irish scrapper in round 5 with a rib-rattling left hook underneath. Fury, 23, had dallied with a different coach yet again for this, his 18th outing. Another of his uncles, Peter on this occasion, picked up the reins that have squirted through a bewildering number of hands in Fury’s short time as a professional and, true to form, Fury surprised everyone from the opening bell with his impersonation of a port-sider. At 245 ¾, he looked fit at least, even if his new stance -- employed no doubt in an effort to evade the right hands which have been ricocheting off his chin with increasing regularity in recent bouts -- looked horribly forced, gauche even. Earlier in the day, the nation had been grippe...

There had been plenty of confusion in the 24 hours before the fight when Rogan claimed at the weigh-in that Fury's people had attempted to pull a contractual stroke and have him sign an amendment agreeing that the fight be over 12 rounds. Rogan seemed to suggest that his fight contract stipulated a 10-round contest, the mandated distance for an Irish heavyweight title fight, and stormed out of the building shouting at the top of his lungs that he'd been duped. For a few hours the contest itself had appeared to be in jeopardy, but eventually the Irish boxing authorities, Rogan himself, and Fury's people, managed to reach agreement (doubtless spurred on by the commercial imperatives involved) and the fight went ahead scheduled for the championship distance and f Sun, 15 Apr 2012 04:41:01 -0400 http://network.yardbarker.com/boxing/article_external/tyson_fury_stops_rogan_in_five/10560604 http://network.yardbarker.com/boxing/article_external/tyson_fury_stops_rogan_in_five/10560604 Tyson Fury stops Rogan in five http://www.yardbarker.com/boxing/articles/tyson_fury_stops_rogan_in_five/10560604 http://www.yardbarker.com/images/yb_logo_square_grey.png Tonight in Belfast, Ireland, the Irish heavyweight title is up for grabs as Tyson Fury meets Martin Rogan. The weigh-ins for the card took place on Friday afternoon, and right here you can find the official weights. Tyson Fury 245.75 lbs Martin Rogan 228.25 lbs That's a pretty low weight for Fury, and some have commented that he seemed a bit drained at the weigh-in. Others are just saying he's in exceptional shape for the fight. We'll see if he's at his best and if he looks good against Rogan, a guy he's certainly expected to beat. Chris Eubank Jr 163 lbs Paul Allison 162 lbs John O’Donnell 154.5 lbs Martin Walsh 155.25 lbs Check back in with us later this weekend for the Fury vs. Rogan results. Will Fury move one step closer to competing on the world stage, and potentially challenging for the world heavyweight titles? Or will Rogan upset those plans a bit and score the biggest win of his career? Also in action is highly touted prospect Chris Eubank Jr,...

It could be said that Englishman Tyson Fury was burdened the moment he came into existence, when his father saw fit to saddle him with the same name as the "Baddest Man On The Planet." On the day the younger Fury came blinkingly into the world, Iron Mike Tyson was a month away from arguably his meanest performance in the ring -- a unification bout with Michael Spinks in which Tyson literally frightened his opponent out of the fight in less than a round. Coming from gypsy stock, and with that name slung around his neck, young Tyson Fury really had no choice but to be a fighter. His dad, Gypsy John Fury, was a professional heavyweight in his own right, and was 5-1 at the time of Tyson's birth, so he may have even entertained thoughts of sharing a ring with his American hero. But in truth, the elder Fury was better known as a bare-knuckler in the travelers tradition than as a fighter under Mar Thu, 12 Apr 2012 07:45:00 -0400 http://network.yardbarker.com/boxing/article_external/tyson_fury_young_man_of_the_moment/10543372 http://network.yardbarker.com/boxing/article_external/tyson_fury_young_man_of_the_moment/10543372 Tyson Fury: Young man of the moment http://www.yardbarker.com/boxing/articles/tyson_fury_young_man_of_the_moment/10543372 http://www.yardbarker.com/images/yb_logo_square_grey.png Fight Now TV will deliver exciting boxing from both sides of the Atlantic Ocean this Saturday (Apr. 14) starting at 5 PM/ET.

Fury has been locked away in Manchester training like never before but has been made aware of those coming to the Odyssey who will be willing him to victory in his vacant all-Ireland heavyweight title fight with Belfast hard man Rogan. “The support that I have been getting is unbelievable. When I boxed in Belfast last year I got a fantastic reception wherever I went and on the night the atmosphere was amazing,” commented Fury.

The Boxing Union of Ireland have confirmed that Fury has the right to box for the title after proving his Irish ancestry with some help from his cousin and World middleweight title contender Andy Lee. Undefeated former British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion Fury says he is “thrilled” to be boxing for the Irish title and thanked Lee and his family after they backed his campaign to prove his Irish roots. “Andy’s father went to the Boxing Union of Ireland and signed an affidavit that my grandmother was Irish so all the talk about me being Irish or not has been put to bed,” explained ...
