Tony Fulilangi (born March 25, 1960) is a former heavyweight boxer from Tonga. He has fought Bert Cooper, and Jimmy Young. He also once fought George Foreman. He is also a boxing coach and has coached Paea Wolfgramm.Fulilangi was born Sonatane Fulilangi in Tonga.Prior to his career Fulilangi attended Brigham Young University in Hawaii where he had been offered a track and field scholarship. He dropped out and didn't do much of anything for a couple of years until he decided to go to Phoenix to visit his brother. He went to a boxing gym there and punched the coach. After that he went to Al Fenn's gym and had a bit of similar trouble there when sparring with a former Golden Glove champion. His first amateur fights were all won by knockout before the second round had finished. Fulilangi's change from an amateur boxer to pro came about when he went to Hawaii to visit his sister. He had a fight in a Honolulu gym with the best heavyweight in Hawaii. He beat him and was offered a pro fight. On his first fight he beat his opponent by knocking him out in the first round. The following six pro fight saw Fulilangi knocking his opponent out before the second round was up. Fenn would play a part in straightening out the young Fulilangi somewhat.By the age of 24, Fulilangi was based in Arizona and managed by Al Fenn.In 1981, Fulilangi had eight fights and won all of them. On June 17, he fought Marcellus Pake Dudoit in Honolulu and knocked him out in the first round. On August 3, he fought Memo Soto and knocked him out in the third. The next two fights he had were against Tim Lampkin and Brady Wills. He won both of them by TKO. He beat Charles Smith in the first round in a fight that took place in Phoenix on October 13. He fought Tim Lampkin again in Phoenix on November 17. he knocked him out in the first round. The last two fights he had that year were against Larry Ware and J D Hall. Fulilangi won both of the fights by knockout.In 1983, Fulilangi was set to fight Jimmy Young on July 31 at the Phoenix Civic Plaza. The fight was re-scheduled. Fulilangi at the time had a record of 22-0-1 with 21 knockouts. His last fight had been with state heavyweight champion Tony Perea on May 16, and the fight was a draw. Young had health issues and Vince Giorno, the manager for Young asked for the fight to be postponed. Because he had previously asked for a postponement, National Sports Concepts promoter Tom Donato decided to cancel the fight. On September 22 that year, Fulilangi suffered his first loss as a professional when Monte Masters beat him in the tenth round. The fight was stopped by referee Lew Eskin after Masters had Fulilangi pinned against the ropes and was landing punches for nearly a minute. Fulilangi was referred to by The Los Angeles Times as the Mike Tyson of Masters's day.
