By William Mackay: Former British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (17-0, 12 KO’s) recently gave up his titles just when unbeaten heavyweight David Price (12-0, 9 KO’s) was on the verge of forcing a fight against him after beating John McDermott to become the 23-year-old Fury’s mandatory challenger for his British title.
Tyson Fury
Tyson “The Gypsy King” Fury, a British boxing giant standing tall at 6’9″ and tipping the scales at 278 lbs, has been ruling the heavyweight division with his iron fists since 2020. Not just a family man with a bunch of kids and a love story that dates back to 2008 with Paris, but Fury also boasts a record that reads like a warrior’s epic—especially his trilogy with Deontay Wilder (2-0-1, with 2 KOs) and a hat trick against Derek Chisora. Before claiming the WBC crown, he unified the heavyweight titles way back in 2015, only to take a brief hiatus from the throne. With a squad of fighting siblings by his side, Fury’s not just throwing punches; he’s crafting a legacy that’s as large as his frame. Tyson Fury’s net worth is estimated to be around £50million, according to Forbes magazine.

Price-Fury bout a possibility after all
