At the presser a beaming Frank Warren revealed Fury’s latest accolade.
Fury, 35, beat off competition from the likes of Anthony Joshua, Lewis Hamilton and Cristiano Ronaldo to be awarded the title.
The survey was compiled by Illicitencounters.com, who asked 2,000 women to rate sportsmen out of ten in “sexiness” and “affair factor”.
Fury’s younger brother Tommy missed out on the top ten altogether in 13th, much to his sibling’s amusement.

Upon hearing where his brother had finished, a delighted Fury bellowed: “So now I’ve got bragging rights in the family.
“Tommy you ugly b****** if you’re watching! Number 13!
“I just want to say a big shout out to everyone who has supported me, all my friends and family for this moment, [it’s] very, very special.”
In trademark fashion, Fury then launched into a speech on the benefits of being “fat and bald”.

TYSON FURY VS OLEKSANDR USYK: ALL THE DETAILS YOU NEED AHEAD OF HUGE UNDISPUTED HEAVYWEIGHT BOUT
The Gypsy King boomed: “Sexiest sportsman alive, never say never people, always believe in yourself.
“If you’re fat and you’re bald, you’re probably going to get laid. Get up!”
He then took to Instagram to send a message to his wife Paris, saying: “Paris, just a quick one, I’ve just been voted the sexiest sportsman alive for the first time.
“Beat Ronaldo, pipped him at the post. Get up there! You’re married to the sexiest sportsman alive, according to 2,000 women. You Lucky lady.”
Fury was in a less friendly mood when it came to trash talking with Usyk.
Speaking to the Ukrainian, he yelled: “His b******s have shrivelled up, now they have.
“Little sausage. A s***y with an earring in, you f*****g p***y.
“You’ll get knocked spark out.”
Usyk, 36, simply replied: “I’ll do my talking in the ring.”

The venue and date is still to be confirmed by Mayweather’s team.

He fought Gotti in June in Florida but the clash ended in a no contest after referee Kenny Bayless stopped the fight in the sixth round due to excessive trash talking.
The event then descended into chaos as a huge brawl broke out between the two camps.
Prior to that Mayweather bossed the contest and toyed with his inexperienced opponent throughout.
Gotti, 30, is the grandson of infamous mafia boss John Gotti of the Gambino crime family, which was once described as America’s most powerful crime syndicate.

A flustered Fury responded: “Very good, very good.”
And boxing fans reckon the heat of the moment finally got to the Gypsy King.
One said: “Will Fury actually go through with the fight? Seems rattled. Usyk sat calmly.”
Another declared: “I still think Fury wins this, but there’s not a man born from his mother who has ever rattled him like Usyk.”
One noted: “Usyk wasn’t taking a step back and it’s clear Fury is a little rattled. Overly loud.”
Another added: “For me Fury is unnecessarily rattled by Usyk who’s cool as always. I think Fury knows full well that Usyk poses a real threat to him and that unbeaten record.”
But some fans dismissed the idea of Usyk getting inside Fury’s head.
One growled: “Fury is not rattled, have you ever watched literally any of Fury’s press conferences?”
Another added: “Must be new to boxing if you don’t know that Fury has done this his entire career in every meaningful fight.” More

Paul, 26, has successfully made the transition from YouTube star to pro boxer after making his debut nearly four years ago.
The ace has won seven of his eight fights so far, with his one loss coming against Tommy Fury.
Following August’s win over ex-UFC star Nate Diaz, Paul returns to the ring next month to take on Andre August.
But he’s already lining up his next opponent in KSI.

The Brit, 30, has already seen off Paul’s older brother Logan.
And his boxing pro record stands at four wins and one defeat in six outings.
KSI has kept a low profile since also being beaten by Love Island star Fury.
However, Paul is ready to take him on next year and has even put three conditions on the table — all of which are in KSI’s favour.

Paul told Ariel Helwani that KSI could fight in the UK, be the A-side of the card, and go in at his preferred weight of 185lbs.
Paul explained: “You can be the A-side, we can do it on your home turf, 185lbs. What’s the excuse? Where is the negotiation getting stalled at?”
Paul continued: “All of this has always depended on KSI and him actually wanting to do this. He just hasn’t wanted to.
“I think the [Fury] loss and how badly it hurt his ego… kind of just shows if he’s that salty about that loss, if he would lose to me, it would be the end of his entire world.
“I don’t think he’s ready for that mental burden and risk everything to fight me.
“I just don’t think he’s going to come back to the boxing ring. He’s playing video games, doing reaction videos, while I’m sparring world champions.” More

TYSON FURY’S 15-pint Christmas Day binge is cancelled so he can become our undisputed heavyweight king.The 35-year-old WBC champ was supposed to meet WBA, IBF and WBO boss Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia on December 23 – perfectly timed for a super-session 24 hours later.

But the lager-than-life character suffered bumps and bruises in a points win over Francis Ngannou on October 28 so the iconic four-belt decider was pushed back to February 17 and bundled the Gypsy King onto the wagon – thankfully he isn’t bitter.
“It wasn’t my ideal date,” he grinned with none of the purple welts MMA giant left him with.
“I wanted the 23rd because then I could have had a good Christmas and now I am going to have a s*** Christmas.
“I can’t go and get 4st heavier now, like I would like to.

“This date will keep me in shape and give me something to think about but it’s only a few weeks after so not too bad.
“I will still have a proper Christmas day with the family, it’s not that serious that I have to cancel Christmas is it?
“Me and Joe Parker usually go to the boozer next door, while the dinner is getting made, and have 15 pints.
“But this time he can do it and I can’t because he will be celebrating his win on the 23rd and I will still be in camp.”

TYSON FURY VS OLEKSANDR USYK: ALL THE DETAILS YOU NEED AHEAD OF HUGE UNDISPUTED HEAVYWEIGHT BOUT
Just as Fury is in the middle of a 20-minute national newspaper huddle, Usyk strolls passed and the showman cannot help throw verbals at him.
Thankfully they’re only his favourite ‘sausage and corey’ barbs, the latter being Traveller slang for a penis.
And the spiteful x-rated stuff he has said about him in the past is pleasantly missing from his brief outurst and the end of his chat with us.
In a far better mood than we expected him, Fury said: “As a fighter he’s done everything that can be done, so you have to respect him. 
“He’s come from Ukraine, I don’t from what sort of background but probably a poor one.
“He’s done fantastic, just like Wilder, Joshua, Parker, myself. We’ve all done fantastic, we are all multimillionaires who have changed our stars for the better. 
“You have to respect him and admire him. I don’t really know him as a man because I’ve never been out with him for a beer or socialised. 
“But from what I’ve seen he’s a God-fearing family man.”
Fury was full of praise for his competitor UsykCredit: PA
Sadly, as is so often the case with Fury, he switched up his stance once on the stage and slung a load of childish insults, especially the fact Usyk was sporting an earring.
In a trademark Jekyll-to-Hyde switch, he screamed: “I am going to bust him, ugly little man, sausage.
“He is fighting the best British man there has ever been.
“He is like a little p**** with an earring.
“I am going to knock that sausage out cold.
“He can never beat me. If he beats me in his dreams he better wake up and apologise.”
When Usyk coolly asked if his tirade was over, he barked: “I came here to pick a fight, not play games.
“I did not get dressed up for nothing.
“You little man, you little man.
Fury reverted back to his antagonising self during the press conferenceCredit: Reuters
But 6ft 3in Usyk kept his counsel and went deep back into the history books to explain why he will step up from undisputed cruiserweight glory and complete the same legendary feat at heavyweight.
The ice-cool 36-year-old said: “I don’t want to speak. I do my speaking in the ring.
“I am a little man,” he grinned from under his moustache. “But I’m a big champion.
“I want to tell one story which looks similar to Tyson and me. About David And Goliath.
“When the Lord gives me Tyson in my hands, I will make my jump.”
In another late plot twist, Rocky legend Sylvestre Stallone emerged from the rehearsal rooms and stood between the pair of real-life heavyweight champions.
And when they came nose-to-nose, the dignified script went up in shreds as they butted like wild stags desperately trying to hold their ground and invade deeper territory.
The devout pair argued which one would have the power of god behind them.
Fury screamed at the top of his voice that the Lord would never deliver him to Usyk.
But the Orthodox Christian – who regularly addresses the media caressing his rosary beads – simply said: “Nothing is impossible with the Lord.”

TYSON FURY has told Anthony Joshua to consider himself lucky that the Gypsy King has saved his Christmas.The 34-year-old Watford icon has been handed a December 23 fight with Otto Wallin and – if he secures the win – an overdue super-fight with Deontay Wilder in 2024.

The two-deal – arranged in less than a week – has come as a huge surprise as it’s with rival promoters and broadcasters to AJ’s exclusive crews.
And 35-year-old Fury, who freed the date up after his undisputed clash with Oleksandr Usyk was pushed back to February 17, wants some credit for his foe’s festive windfall.
He grinned at the launch of his four-belt Saudi showdown: “I have made them all millionaires.
“But everyone can look after themselves, I just wish them good luck and good health and a good Christmas present.

“But what a Christmas present they have got now, they all need to thank Saudi boxing because it has been on a nose dive.
“Without me this wouldn’t be possible. I have introduced Saudi Arabia and boxing to each other.
“But I am not here for pats on the back and all that, I have my own fight in February.”
Fury’s underwhelming win over Francis Ngannou on October 28 was his first in a three-fight Saudi deal worth a rumoured £200m.

And he looks like banking another £130 if he has a longshot bet on AJ getting stunned by underdog Wallin on the crazy card.
He explained: “I had a look on the train on the way down here, if you bet Jarrell Miller to beat Daniel Dubois, Joseph Parker to beat Deontay Wilder and Otto Wallin to beat Anthony Joshua, it’s 130-1 to win.
“If you just put a pound on and get £130 for Christmas.
“I am not pushing gambling but it’s definitely worth a few quid.”

Tempers were high after a fired-up Fury berated his undefeated Ukrainian foe for most for the majority of the presser.
And it almost kicked off after they went eye-to-eye with one another in front of Hollywood icon and ‘Rocky’ star Sylvester Stallone, who was a surprise addition to the proceedings.
Fury, 35, nearly created a ruckus by putting his noggin on Usyk’s forehead as he tried to put the fear of God in him.
Usyk, however, was unmoved and pushed The Gypsy King back with his own skull.

And that act prompted security to intervene and quickly separate the duo before premature blows were thrown.
Boxing fans were quick to comment on the chaotic scenes, with one writing on X: “Fury’s head “enter Oleksandr Usyk”

One remarked: “Come on Tyson!!!!!”
Another chimed in: “Fury knows he’s f***ed.”
Despite Usyk standing his grown, Fury insists he saw fear in the unified heavyweight champion’s eyes.
The undefeated WBC king said: “I think he’s scared to death. He’s rattled.
“His balls are twitching now, boys. His a***hole is flapping.”
Former pound-for-pound king Usyk believes Fury’s shenanigans were borne out of fear.
He said: “The man behaves like that when he’s afraid and he doesn’t feel comfort.
“He’s not sure about anything.”

Usyk will no doubt have to endure a barrage of taunts until he and Fury finally step into the Riyadh ring on February 17.
But his sole focus is on becoming the first undisputed heavyweight champion in a quarter of a century and being a beacon of hope for his war-torn homeland.
He said: “For me, this is a big opportunity [becoming] undisputed. For my family, my country.
“[And] my people, who now defend my country.”
Usyk will become only the second male fighter in boxing history to become an undisputed champion in two weight classes should he topple Fury in their showdown.
But the former cruiserweight king insisted: “There is no destiny.
“God gives me this opportunity and I’m using the opportunity.
“Thanks God for everything.” More
