Tyson Fury: unbeaten in 17 fights as a professional
Tyson Fury has vacated his British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles.
The 23-year-old Mancunian, who has won all his 17 professional bouts, will instead target a world title.
Fury said: "It's been an honour to have won and held both the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles, but as I'm now currently number number seven in the world it's time to move on...
"I'm really excited about my future plans as I'm doing things differently and currently training like a Trojan in pursuit of becoming heavyweight champion of the world."
