Tommy Fury Wins Majority Decision Over Eddie Hall in Misfits Boxing Exhibition

Six two‑minute rounds in Manchester revealed a 108‑pound size gap, celebrity judges, loud fan backlash, highlighting Misfits Boxing's entertainment-first model.

Overview

  • Fury defeated Hall by majority decision after six two‑minute rounds on June 13, with ringside judges Tony Bellew, Derek Chisora and Chase DeMoor scoring the fight 59‑56, 58‑56 and 57‑57.
  • The bout was an exhibition that will not affect Fury's professional record and was fought under Misfits Boxing’s bespoke rules, including 12oz gloves and no weight limit.
  • A 108‑pound weight gap at the official weigh‑ins shaped the fight as Hall used early pressure but saw his pace fall off while Fury relied on movement, counters and body shots to edge rounds.
  • Post‑fight scenes produced immediate headlines when Fury announced his newborn son's name, Midas, and a ring confrontation between DeMoor and Roman Fury required security intervention.
  • The event was sold as spectacle on DAZN pay‑per‑view with large purses and celebrity involvement, a model that prioritizes entertainment and commercial returns over traditional competitive norms.
