TYSON FURY has jokingly claimed he’s the now face of a CONDOM brand ahead of his return to the ring.
Fury, 36, will soon enter training camp for his do-or-die December rematch with Oleksandr Usyk, who shattered his dream of becoming undisputed heavyweight champion in May.
Fury has kept a low profile after his decision defeat to the Ukrainian but was among the 98,000 spectators for Anthony Joshua’s Wembley war with Daniel Dubois last Saturday.
And ahead of the fight, the dad-of-seven has joked that he’s going to be the face of a contraceptive brand.
When asked what he’s promoting on his social media, Fury told Boxing King Media: “Extra small condoms I’m advertising at the moment.
“On sale – buy one, get one free.”

“Hands down, I will always believe that and Usyk will too. They got a gift decision over the Gypsy King, end of.
“If you give him eight, nine and ten and class nine as a two-rounder, he didn’t win any other rounds in that fight.
