Rare footage has surfaced showing Tyson Fury securing a brutal knockout during his amateur career.
Fury finished his amateur career with a 31-4 record, turning pro in 2008 after being passed over for the Olympics in favor of David Price.
Before turning pro, the future two-time heavyweight world champion traveled to Philadelphia in 2007 to represent the Harrowgate Boxing Club.
Competing for Belfast`s Holy Family ABC, Fury boxed in front of a small crowd at the New Alhambra Sports and Entertainment Centre.
Those present might not have realized they were witnessing a future star, but Fury`s knockout of Maurice Byarm offered a potential glimpse.
Fury, just 19 at the time, hurt the American fighter on the ropes with an uppercut, and a subsequent right hand finished the contest in the third and final round.
Byarm himself turned professional in 2009, two years after his loss to Fury, but did not achieve significant success in the paid ranks.
He suffered losses to Bryant Jennings and Magomed Abdusalamov in 2012 before leaving the sport.
Byarm made a return six years later in 2018, defeating Richard Carmack in his comeback fight, which proved to be his last.
Meanwhile, Fury first became a world champion in 2015, upsetting Wladimir Klitschko in Germany to claim the WBA, IBF, and WBO titles.
By 2017, however, he vacated these titles while dealing with depression and substance abuse issues.
This period set the stage for one of boxing`s most notable comebacks, as Fury returned in 2018 to challenge for the WBC title, resulting in a controversial draw against Deontay Wilder.
Fury subsequently defeated Wilder twice to secure the belt, but in May, he ultimately lost the title and his undefeated record to Oleksandr Usyk.
The 38-year-old Usyk also won the rematch in December. A month later, the 36-year-old Fury announced his retirement from boxing and has maintained it to date.
