Last night, Tommy Fury stepped into the boxing ring for the first time in over 18 months to defeat Kenan Hanjalic by unanimous decision in a bout in Budapest.
It's his first fight since 2023 where he defeated YouTuber KSI by split decision, and Fury's win over the Bosnian takes his boxing record to 11 victories, four of them by knockout, and no defeats.
During his fight with Hanjalic last night (9 May) - which was a much more low-key event than the big boxing spectacles where he's fought famous YouTubers - Fury twice saw his opponent hit the canvas but both instances were ruled as slips.

Fury had been supposed to fight Darren Till earlier this year for his comeback fight, but he'd pulled out of the bout as he was unhappy with claims that Till would try and introduce kicking to a boxing match, which prompted a very angry response from Till.
Before beating KSI, Fury had defeated Jake Paul, and after winning his fight against Bosnian boxer Hanjalic in Budapest he had some choice words for his former opponent.
"Jake Paul’s a b***h and he's running scared," Fury said in his post-fight interview.
"Hey, Jake, the hand is fixed now baby, the hand is fixed. I fought a guy in here tonight who's had more than 100 amateur fights, an experienced hitter and he's as tough as teeth.

"If Jake Paul wants to step inside the ring, I guarantee next time, I will knock you spark out. I've had two years out the ring, this is after two years, I'll knock that bum out whenever he wants it."
In case you couldn't tell, them's fighting words and it sounds like he wants another bout against Paul.
The American YouTuber turned boxer has got a fight pencilled in for next month against 39-year-old Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, but if he wants to pick on someone his own age it sounds like Fury is ready.
Fury represents Paul's only loss in his boxing career to date, a career which has seen him step into the ring with a much older Mike Tyson who had almost died in the build-up to the bout.

A rematch between Fury and Paul would likely be a lucrative spectacle given the crowds each of them can draw in.
According to Paul, Fury is 'trickier' to fight than Tyson because he has a 'shot you don't see'.
He said: "So, Tommy was a little tricky and, what I mean by that is, like if you see the punch coming, you could prepare for it.
"If you're going into something and you can't see it, and then all of a sudden you get hit, that's when it hurts.
"So Tommy was more tricky with that but Mike's punches, I could see coming."
