Tommy Fury fight history

Fury has been given credit as the first semi-legitimate boxer Paul (6-0, 4 KOs) has faced, but in all honesty, Paul is just as big of a step up for the younger Fury. For most of Fury’s early fights he’s faced a wide variety of unsuccessful journeymen like Jevgenijs Andrejevs (10-102-3), Callum Ide (0-26-2), Przemyslaw Binienda (2-26) and Genadij Krajerskij (0-12).

The hand-picked competition has improved a little recently. He beat Anthony Taylor by unanimous decision in a four-round fight on August 29, 2021 in what was supposed to be a warm up for Paul. That follow-up fight, however, was postponed multiple times due to Fury injury and visa issues. In the meantime, he beat a more successful journeyman Daniel Bocianski (11-2) in a bout on April 22, 2023 as part of the undercard of the Tyson Fury-Dillian Whyte fight.

DraftKings Sportsbook does not have a betting line on the fight, but Fury is a moderate underdog at places that are taking action.
