It wasn't pretty, but Tyson Fury got it done.
The massive heavyweight pugilist upset longtime champion, Wladimir Klitschko, handing him his first loss in more than a decade yesterday (Sat., Nov. 28, 2015) inside Esprit Arena in Dusseldorf, Germany.
The now-former The Ring, IBF, WBO, IBO and WBA Heavyweight boxing champion didn't look good, as Klitschko refused to engage in the bout, as Tyson Fury mocked him en route to an unlikely unanimous decision victory.
And one of the biggest upsets in boxing history came to be (full recap here).
As you can see in the highlights above, (via ESPN), Klitshcko (64-4, 53 KO), it seemed, didn't have a clue how to deal with Fury's highly-awkward head movement and unorthodox punching.
"Dr. Steelhammer" clinched after almost every exchange instead of delivering uppercuts every time his much larger foe ducked down.
Despite the upset victory, Fury didn't look good either, as he was more focused on playing the part of the class clown than throwing punches. Honestly, based on the performances, it'd be hard to convince any newcomer watching the fight that the two best heavyweight boxers in the world were going at it.
When it was all said and done, Klitschko dropped a unanimous decision on scores of 115-112 and 116-111 (twice), ending his dominant reign.
