World Series of Fighting and Glory veteran Tyrone
Spong is finally healthy enough to compete.
According to ECBoxing.de, “The King of the Ring” is currently under negotiations to make his professional boxing debut on March 6 in Berlin against a yet-to-be-decided opponent.

“I can adjust. I think that’s one of my strongest spots. I don’t see any problems,” said Spong. “I’m going to make it even more difficult for myself because I’m probably going to fight some professional boxing fights this year too. That’s me.”
