The 32-year-old won his first Ring Magazine award in 2015 by beating the mighty challenger Wladimir Klitschko. Nobody expected Fury to survive a few rounds against the Ukrainian boxer, but he puzzled Klitschko with one of his most complete career performances.

Later, the Brit went into a serious depression and was out of action for almost three years. He started from scratch in 2018 and challenged Deontay Wilder for the heavyweight titles. That night, Fury showed one of the greatest comebacks of the sport, but the fight ended with a tragic draw.
