TYSON FURY fans will be given a real treat this weekend.
BT Sport are broadcasting a special Fury Fight Night on Saturday, starting at 7pm, that will feature the Gypsy King’s six comeback fights following time out of the sport.

It of course ended with Fury winning the WBC heavyweight belt after a stunning seven-round demolition job on the previously undefeated Deontay Wilder.
It was the prefect revenge for their first fight that was deemed a draw by Los Angeles judges despite most believing Fury had done enough for the win.
It’s fair to say Fury was “eased in” to his grand return to the sport back in June 2018 against Sefer Seferi.
Here, SunSport runs you through what you can look forward to seeing from the comfort of your front room.
Fury may well have won on his big boxing comeback – but fans were left less-than impressed.
Fury started by KISSING his opponent when the referee told them to touch gloves, before the Gypsy King danced through four painful-to-watch rounds.
He even had time to take a moment to watch a scrap in the crowd, with Seferi caught like a rabbit in the headlights on what was his big night in Manchester.

The Gypsy King warmed up for his fight against Deontay Wilder with a wide points victory against Francesco Pianeta in Belfast.
There were even boos as the final bell sounded of what was the most routine of nights for the Gypsy King.
He won every round against a man he promised to make “Italian sausage” out of. More like mincemeat by the end.

Fury was robbed of one of the greatest comebacks in history when his WBC heavyweight title fight against Wilder in Los Angeles was scored a draw.
The judges ruled the contest even, after harsh scores of 115-111, 112-114 and 113-113, despite the Gypsy King impressively out-boxing the defending champion.
This was despite him being sent to the canvas twice during the fight, somehow managing to get back to his feet after a brutal flooring in the 12th.

Fury eased past a vastly under-matched Tom Schwarz on his Las Vegas debut – destroying the German in two rounds – in a match better remembered for his showstopping ring walk.
He was warned not to take the fight lightly, having seen Anthony Joshua stunned by Andy Ruiz Jr a fortnight earlier.
But it took just a round and a half for the Brit to complete the first bout of his £80million Top Rank deal, winning with a jab.

Fury survived a Mexican bloodbath in Las Vegas to remain on course for the blockbuster rematch with Wilder.
The undefeated Gypsy King sustained a horror cut in the third round of this clash with Otto Wallin which knocked him out of his stride.
But Fury showed every ounce of mettle to battle his way to a unanimous decision with the three ringside judges returning cards of 116-112,117-111 and 118-110.

The comeback was competed in the most brilliant fashion on February 22 in Las Vegas when Fury battered Wilder into a seventh-round stoppage.
In one of the best performances ever by British boxer, Fury was crowned the new WBC champion while Wilder tasted defeat for the first time in his pro career.
Such was the one-way nature of the systematic beating, it was even a surprise that Wilder accepted the trilogy fight, scheduled for later this year.
