Tyson Fury vows to make all six children boxers

Tyson Fury has revealed how all six of his children will follow him into the ring.

The Gypsy King recently had to dash back from the US after becoming a dad again when wife Paris gave birth to daughter Athena in August.

Now, speaking about his kids in a new interview ahead of his fight in Vegas with Deontay Wilder, Fury, 31, said: ‘They’re all going to box because even if they’re not going to be boxers, it teaches them respect for life.’

Fury also opened up on details about his preparation for the Wilder fight

Revealing how he shuts himself off from the outside world he said: ‘When I have a big fight coming up, I go into training camp with no kids, no wife, just totally training. I switch my phone off. I have got no phone calls.

‘I don’t want to know what’s going on back at home because when I go into that training camp I’m in a different mood. I don’t want to see anybody. I don’t want to know about anything other than boxing.

‘But like you said when you’re in camp for a fight you’re focusing and you’re getting phoned up and told about general rubbish things at home. You don’t need all that. Just a clear mind. As you know I suffer badly with depression and anxiety and all that.’
