TYSON FURY’S wife Paris revealed her legendary boxing husband has a “coffee fetish”.
So much so that Tyson bought a coffee machine that he loves as much as his Ferrari.
The undefeated WBC champion is passionate about fast cars and has amassed an impressive collection, which includes a Porsche and of course a Ferrari.
However, Paris insists there is only one other thing the heavyweight likes as much as his cool rides and that is his coffee machine that makes him him his beloved Americanos.
The Gyspy King’s partner revealed in her autobiography Love and Fury: The Magic and Mayhem of Life with Tyson that her husband’s passion began during a training camp in the US.
The 35-year-old then bought a coffee machine that he is so enamored with that he keeps it in his main training ground in Morecambe so that his six children don’t “tamper” with it.

Paris wrote: “I’m quite content with Nescafe instant granules – fully caffeinated; I need that pep-up – and like it made very weak with lots of milk, but no sugar.
“If I’m having a hot drink in town, I’ll choose a latte or a flat white, nothing too strong or bitter for me.
“Tyson, on the other hand, has become a coffee connoisseur (or a ‘coffee snob’ as I call him).
“His obsession began when he was holed up in a US training camp that happened to have an all-singing, all-dancing coffee machine.

“Then, perhaps to break the monotony of camp life, he began to educate himself on the origins of the beans – Kenya, Brazil, Colombia – as well their various blends and roasts.
“When he returned to the UK, Tyson splashed out on his own top-of-the-range coffee machine.
“It’s his pride and joy (he loves it as much as his Ferrari, I reckon) and it’s kept permanently in his camp HQ in Morecambe so the kids can’t tamper with it.

“Once or twice a day he’ll grind his own beans and, with tender loving care, will make himself his perfect brew.
“His coffee fetish has become a standing joke between us, in fact. He’ll ridicule my mugs of cheap Nescafe, and I’ll poke fun at his posh Americanos.
“‘Not such a working-class man of the people, eh, Tyson?’ [He responds] ‘Oh, go and boil your kettle’.”
Tyson will need his daily caffeine intake ahead of his undisputed clash with Oleksandr Usyk on December 23 to keep him on his toes for the big fight.
