For the first time since 2004, Wladimir Klitschko was defeated in the ring. On Saturday, Tyson Fury won by unanimous decision (115-112, 115-112, 116-111), snagging the WBA, IBF, IBO and WBA belts and making him the unified heavyweight champion.  

At 39, Wladimir (64-4) could hang his gloves up for good after this defeat, or pursue a rematch with Fury to hopefully end his career on top. Either way, Klitschko shouldn't hang his head because since his loss to Lamon Brewster on April 10, 2004, he has faced 21 different opponents in the ring and came away winning 22 bouts. 

Following his victory, Fury celebrated the win by, you guessed it, serenading his wife in the ring to his own version of "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith.
