Klitshchko--FuryTyson Fury is the new Heavyweight Champion of the world after he stunned Wladimir Klitschko by unanimous decision in Germany.

Undefeated Fury, who improved his record to 25-0 and now has the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO belts, was never troubled by the 39-year-old Ukrainian who suffered his first loss in 11 years.

Fury, changing between southpaw and orthodox stance, kept chipping away at Klitschko’s defences with his combinations, and by the eighth round the Champion was bleeding from a cheek wound.

He then landed a bruising left uppercut in the ninth that wounded Klitschko’s right eye.

Sensing the title slipping away, Klitschko threw everything he had in the final round for a knockout, but ended up losing on all three of the judges’ scorecards.

Meanwhile, Klitschko is already demanding for a rematch.

The fight had been preceded with some tough talk by Fury, but he showed humility after snatching the Champion’s four titles.

He said his rise to become Heavyweight Champion was not easy and despite being undefeated so far in his career, he was constantly written off.
