Tyrone Spong: I want to fight Klitschko, kickboxing organizations 'just can't pay me!'

The boxer-turned kickboxing star explains why he made the move to boxing and talks about a potential future in the UFC and Anderson Silva's PED scandal.

K-1, Glory and WSOF veteran Tyrone Spong raised more than a few eyebrows when he returned from a horrific leg injury in March to make his boxing debut at a regional show in Germany instead of return to kickboxing. After two first-round knock-out wins in boxing, Spong revealed in an interview with Groundandpound Magazine why he made the surprising move in the first place and what his future plans look like.
