Tyson Fury scored 26 knockouts during his amateur career, but none of them were as brutal as the one he inflicted on Maurice Byarm. The super heavyweights met at a show in Philadelphia back in 2007 when Fury was a fresh-faced 19-year-old. Fury travelled across the pond with Belfast's Holy Family ABC to box Harrowgate Boxing Club in an international duel watched by a handful of spectators at the New Alhambra Sports and Entertainment Centre.

Eddie Hearn claims Deontay Wilder's team are keen to make a fight with Dave Allen.

Dillian Whyte's manager, Michael Ofo, says they have 'not committed' to fighting Moses Itauma just yet. This comes days after reports emerged claiming that both parties were finalising terms to face each other on August 16 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. According to the Ring Magazine, the Brits will headline a stacked bill that includes a WBA featherweight title defence for Nick Ball against Sam Goodman, as well as a 50-50 super featherweight clash between Anthony Cacace and Raymond Ford.
