Fury Wins On Points Over McDermott
Tonight, Luke Tyson Fury won a 10 round bout against John McDermott by points for the English heavyweight title. The fight was very competitive from the start. McDermott got in on Tyson's guard throughout the fight and was able to land many right hands on Fury. But, Fury showed grit and landed clean body shots throughout. The fight could have gone either way, but Tyson ended up winning the fight with a score of 98-92 that was handed in by referee and sole judge Terry O'Connor. I thought honestly that that was a little too much in Tyson's favor. I thought the fight was closer than that.
This is Tyson's 1st pro title and now has a professional record of 8-0(7) while McDermott falls to 25-6(16). There are talks of a potential rematch so stay tuned.

Maloney On Fury vs McDermott
Ahead of their British heavyweight title match on Friday, September 11th at The Brentwood Centre in Essex, England between Luke "Tyson" Fury 7-0 (7) and John McDermott 25-5 (16), promoter Frank Maloney had a few things to say..
"I am told there have been some massive bets among different factions in the travelling community..
"That doesn't surprise me because travellers are pretty fearless when it comes to putting their money where their mouth is.
"There is even a suggestion that someone in Essex has taken a £50,000 bet on Fury winning the fight which is nuts.
"There is going to be so much pride at stake between the fighters and fans that the atmosphere will be like a bear-pit and it makes for a wildly exciting match-up.
"It is a fascinating fight where McDermott is in the last chance saloon and Fury has to live up to his boasts. He'll look daft if he doesn't."
McDermott also had a few things to say...
"People don't realise I can box. I have a good left hand and my boxing is one of my best attributes.
"Look at Martin Rogan. He has a fantastic body, but I am not born like that. I run at a good pace for an hour some mornings and keep up with boxers of 11 stone. I train hard three times a day."

Fury To Fight McDermott
Unbeaten up-and-coming heavyweight Luke Tyson Fury 7-0 (7) is scheduled to face the English heavyweight champion John McDermott 25-5 (16) ( won the English crown in 2 rounds when he easily beat Pele Reid in April 2008 and will be making his first defence) for the English heavyweight title on Friday, September 11th at The Brentwood Centre in Essex, England.
In the last year, McDermott had lost 2 very close fights with the British heavyweight champion Danny Williams, so if Fury can win this fight very impressively, he will be a force to be reckoned with with only 8 fights in the heavyweight division. Come back for more detailed information.
"There is no doubting Tyson’s promise, but this fight has come too soon."
"John knows that if he loses this one there will be little chance of him ever winning the British title let alone getting another challenge."
About Fury's opponents:
"They have been ordinary and the one name he did beat, Scott Belshaw is someone I released from his contract because he was so disappointing."

Fury KO's Selezens
It took only 3 rounds tonight for 21 year old Tyson Fury to remain undefeated 7-0(7) and score his 7th win and 7th knockout as he defeated the 29 year old Aleksandrs Selezens of Latvia by KO who fell to 3-7(1). His opponent did not look in the best of shape, but none-the-less Fury remains undefeated and he plans to stay busy this year.
Fury entered the ring smiling to Micheal Jackson's "Thriller" and started off the 1st round easily landing the right and again throughout the round and finished the round with a left right left combination. His opponent did little to nothing.
In round 2, more of the same and in round 3, his opponent finally got a punch in with the Fury's hand left hand held low. That's all that Selezens did really. For the whole third round Tyson dominated with rights to the head and body, and by the end of the round had his opponent in trouble with a couple of right uppercuts to the chin. Selezens was down against the ropes, and managed to beat the count, but his corner through in the towel.
This was a pretty easy match, but Tyson is going to fight for the English heavyweight title when he takes on "Big Bad" John McDermott in September which should be a sterner test for him...
