Glazkov made his professional debut on July 2, 2009 inMoscow. Nearly six years later, Glazkov defeatedSteve Cunningham byunanimous decision on March 15, 2015 to earn a title fight againstTyson Fury. Following a petition from Glazkov's camp, Fury's recognition asIBF champion was withdrawn, citing his intention to fight a rematch withWladimir Klitschko as the reason. Glazkov was matched withCharles Martin for the vacant title. The bout, which took place on January 16, 2016 atBarclays Center inBrooklyn, ended when Glazkov suffered an injury to his knee in the third round that rendered him unable to continue.[1] The injury eventually forced him to retire from the sport.[2]
