The Boxing Glove Awards 2015
British Boxer of the Year
Tyson Fury

With his sensational victory over Wladimir Klitschko to win the World heavyweight title, Tyson Fury became Britain’s outstanding boxer of 2015 by a long way.  

Fury’s victory was one of the best ever by a British boxer.  He beat a long reigning world champion who was still considered to be at the peak of his career.  It was a performance and a result which has breathed new life into the heavyweight division, which is now suddenly more alive than it has been since the late 1990s.
