TYSON FURY revealed two of his sons have started training and he will be “fully supportive” if they want to be boxers.
The heavyweight champion has six children – three boys and three girls – with wife Paris pregnant with a seventh.
Prince John James, 11, and Prince Tyson II, six, are the two oldest boys of the Fury family.
And both are now following in the footsteps of their legendary dad by picking up the gloves.
Fury, 34, said on a Foxify Trade Twitter Space: “I’ve got my oldest son who’s 11 and my middle son who’s six – they both are in the boxing gym right now.
“They’re in training, they’re starting, only young, kids having fun in the gym and all that.

“If they want to pursue it as a career later on in life then I’m fully supportive.
“Because who am I to tell somebody not to do something, not to follow their dreams?
“I don’t believe in crushing kids’ dreams because I was once a kid with a massive dream.
“I had an unreachable dream and everybody told me that it was a stupid idea, you’re probably not gonna make it, you’re gonna waste your life, you’re gonna have nothing at the end of it.

“I didn’t believe any of them and I followed my dreams, followed my heart and here I am today. I’m living proof that dreams do come true.
“With hard work, dedication, being in the right place at the right time, the right mindset, and a lot of other stuff as well, dreams do come true for sure.”
Boxing is a family affair for Fury, whose dad John and uncle Peter were both fighters and trainers.
His cousin Hughie is a current heavyweight contender and half-brother Tommy is an unbeaten prospect.
Fury is hoping to fight Oleksandr Usyk, 36, this year in the division’s first four-belt unification after talks earlier in the year collapsed.
