From the Ring to Rubbish
John McDermott, the only man to "beat" Tyson Fury, has transitioned from the boxing ring to a different career path after facing bitter disappointment in his boxing career.
Bitter End to Boxing Career
McDermott, who fought Fury in 2009 for the English heavyweight title, felt he was robbed on the scorecards that night, leading to a career shift away from boxing.
From £15,000 Fight Payout to Rubbish Clearance
After earning only £15,000 in his fight against Fury, McDermott struggled to make ends meet in boxing and eventually retired in 2013. He now works in rubbish clearance in his native Essex.
Future Prediction for Fury vs. Usyk
Despite McDermott's belief that Fury will win his upcoming fight against Usyk, he anticipates a tough battle and foresees Fury breaking Usyk down with heavy punches in the later rounds.
