      When is Tyson Fury’s next fight?
      Tyson Fury’s next fight is against Francis Ngannou on Saturday, October 28, 2023.
      The Gypsy King will face his mixed martial arts rival in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in a bout to decide who takes on Mike Tyson’s old moniker of the Baddest Man on the Planet.
      Ngannou’s Saudi showdown with Fury will be a ten-round affair, although the Brit’s WBC heavyweight title won’t be on the line.
      The bout will happen in a standard boxing ring – not the metal cage Ngannou made his name in with the UFC.

      Discussing the highly-anticipated event, Fury said: ”As soon as that bell goes, it’ll be bombs away!
      ”This guy is supposed to be the hardest puncher in the world, but let’s see how he reacts when he gets hit by the Big GK.
      “I can’t wait to get back out there under the lights. I’m looking forward to showing the world that The Gypsy King is the greatest fighter of his generation in an epic battle with another master of his craft.
      “Francis looked tough when he jumped in the ring after the Whyte fight, but there is no one tougher than me, and you’ll all see that in devastating fashion on October 28.”

      Also commenting on the upcoming fight, Ngannou said: “I’ve been waiting to meet Tyson in the ring for the past three years.
      “My dream was always to box, and to box the best.
      “After becoming the undisputed MMA Heavyweight Champion, this is my opportunity to make that dream come true and cement my position as the baddest man on the planet…
      “All I will say to Tyson for now is he better dance in that ring because if I touch him, he’s going to sleep.”

      What is Tyson Fury’s boxing record?
      Tyson Fury has a 33-0-1 record and has garnered a serious reputation amongst the boxing community.
      Following a controversial draw in 2018, The Gypsy King completed a sensational comeback in the sport when he battered Deontay Wilder in their rematch to win the WBC world title in 2020.
      It handed the American his first professional defeat, and also maintained Fury’s own unbeaten record, before the Brit went on to stop Wilder in the 11th round of their thrilling trilogy bout in 2021.
      He has since gone to beat Dillian Whyte and Derek Chisora. More

      Who is Tyson Fury’s mum Amber?

      by

      IT’S FAIR to say that the Fury family have cemented themselves in boxing history.Tyson Fury has boxed in front of millions in stadiums and for those watching at home, but one person who has never watched one of his matches is his own mum, Amber.

      Who is Tyson Fury’s mum Amber?
      Amber Fury is mum to Heavyweight world champ Tyson Fury, whose father is John Fury.
      Unlike her famous family, she has remained completely out of the spotlight and there are no photos of her.
      Amber has also never been to watch one of son’s fights and, according to Fury, is not interested in his world heavyweight belts, with her only concern being he is “healthy and happy”.
      Fury told the Telegraph: “She has never been to one of my fights, amateur or pro, and never been in the public eye at all. 
      Read more on Tyson Fury
      “My mam doesn’t care if I’m world champion or not, as long as I’m healthy and happy. 
      “You could give my mother that table full of £50 notes and diamonds and it wouldn’t change who she is, ever.”
      Fury also revealed in his memoir Behind The Mask, that his mum is not fully aware of his superstardom.
      And she was puzzled when so many fans asked for pictures during a shopping trip following his 2018 draw with Deontay Wilder.
      Most read in Boxing
      Fury famously went on to beat Wilder in the 2020 rematch, before winning again in their 2021 trilogy battle.
      He wrote: “To be honest, my mum doesn’t fully understand what I have achieved as a boxer.
      “I took her out shopping one time after the Wilder fight and I was being stopped for photographs and autographs everywhere I went in Manchester and she couldn’t understand it.
      “She actually said, ‘Hey, son, how do you know so many people?’
      “I had to explain to her that I was the heavyweight champion of the world and a lot of people had watched me and supported me. That was actually very special.”
      How many children does Amber have?
      During her marriage to John Fury, Amber had four children.
      Along with Tyson – who was named after the boxing legend Mike Tyson – they had two more sons, Shane and Hugh.
      Their daughter, Ramona, tragically passed away months after birth.
      After they split, Amber’s ex-husband John went onto marry his second wife Chantal.
      Together they had two sons – which includes Love Island star and boxing champ Tommy Fury.
      Who is Tyson Fury’s father John?
      Born in Tuam, Galway, Ireland into a family of Irish Traveller heritage, John Fury is known by his nickname “Gypsy John” .
      Read More on The Sun
      He is a former professional boxer and bare-knuckle fighter, and patriarch of the Fury family.
      Fury Sr’s career spanned eight years – from 1987 until 1995 – and in total, he was involved in 13 bouts. More

      And now he’s back and facing yet another Brit who will be looking to derail the former undisputed cruiserweight world champion’s reign at heavyweight.
      Dubois beat Kevin Lerena last year on the Tyson Fury vs Derek Chisora undercard, but didn’t look convincing at all.
      The 25-year-old will have to be on his A-game here if he’s to pull of the upset.
      And to go along with the intriguing main event, there’s a decent undercard to boot, with Prince Naseem Hamed’s son Aadam making his debut.

      by

      ANTHONY JOSHUA’s long-awaited showdown with Deontay Wilder is set to be finalised in the next “three weeks”.Former two-time heavyweight champion Joshua began targeting a long-overdue grudge match with The Bronze Bomber before kicking off his career rebuild with a scrappy win over Jermaine Franklin in April.

      Talks over the lucrative Saudi showdown heated up before the Watford warrior’s brutal seventh-round KO of Robert Helenius earlier this month and have since continued.
      And AJ promoter Eddie Hearn expects them to come to a head imminently, telling Fight Hub TV when asked for a timeline: “Two or three weeks.”
      Matchroom Boxing chief Hearn added: “I’ve been to Saudi Arabia twice to negotiate this fight.
      “I’ve had two meetings, three meetings in London.

      “I’m not doing it for banter. My instructions from Anthony Joshua [are] ‘I want to fight Deontay Wilder.’
      “The only way this fight doesn’t happen is if Saudi doesn’t deliver the fight.
      “[Wilder manager] Shelly Finkel, Wilder, as far as I’m hearing from them directly, they are in. We are in.
      “We just need to sign a contract and go through the procedures to get that done.”

      Joshua and Wilder, 33 and 37 respectively, were on a collision course in 2018 when they held all the heavyweight titles but the mouthwatering fight didn’t come to fruition.
      Their long-overdue clash is currently being targeted for January, although Hearn admits AJ could be back in the ring in December should the fight fall through.
      Hearn said: “If it doesn’t happen, I think he’ll (Joshua) fight in December.
      “But I’m not spinning that fight. All of our efforts have been for that fight.

      Carl Froch slams ‘unprofessional’ Anthony Joshua for drinking Conor McGregor’s pint as it ‘could’ve been contaminated’

      ANTHONY JOSHUA has been slammed for indulging in Conor McGregor’s Forged Stout after sending Robert Helenius into oblivion.The Watford warrior breathed new life into his career with a brutal seventh-round knockout of the Nordic Nightmare at the O2 last weekend.

      Carl Froch has slammed AJ for sipping the potentially ‘contaminated’ drinkCredit: GETTY
      A jubilant McGregor was ringside for the fight and jumped in the squared circle moments after the KO to plough AJ with a cup of his fermented beer.
      Joshua, 33, took an uncomfortable sip of the dark stout as McGregor presented it to his lips – a decision former unified super-middleweight champion Carl Froch believes was stupid.
      The Cobra said on his Fighting with Froch podcast: “His nose was p***ing with blood, his mouth was all bleeding.
      “As we saw when he jumped out of the ring and had a slurp on that nasty Irish stout that Conor McGregor shoved in his face.

      “And all blood and snot and sweat went inside that pint.
      “How unprofessional’s that? AJ jumps out the ring, bit disrespectful as well – Helenius is receiving medical attention and he jumps out the ring.
      “Okay, fair play – go and see your dad, go and see your family.
      “You’ve just won a fight, you were a bit nervous and there’s a lot of pressure on you – okay, fine.

      “But don’t go over to Conor McGregor who’s trying to steal the show, making what’s probably a really expensive suit look really cheap because he just looks like a scruffy b****rd.
      “Standing around at ringside, shouting and talking b***cks, trying to be centre of attention, shoves that nasty Irish stout in AJ’s face.
      “He shouldn’t have drunk that stout because that stout could’ve been contaminated, you’ve gotta do a post-fight drugs test.
      “Very unprofessional from Anthony Joshua.”
      Froch believes AJ should’ve followed Brit rival Tyson Fury, who famously refused to drink bottles of water offered to him by strangers after his 2015 win over Wladimir Klitschko and his 2020 rematch with Deontay Wilder.
      Victory over Helenius was Joshua’s second successive triumph since his back-to-back defeats to former pound-for-pound king Oleksandr Usyk.
      He’s set to return to action early next year for a long-overdue grudge match with former WBC heavyweight champion Wilder. More
