John Fury – Wiki, Bio, Age, Wife, Net Worth

Fury has appeared on multiple British television broadcasters, including live shows, pre-recorded programmes and documentaries. On 20 February 2020, he appeared on the ITV show ‘This Morning’ before Tyson’s rematch with Wilder, reassuring viewers that “Tyson is at his strongest now”.

Fury has reportedly stated that the fights he did have were “usually over within seconds”, and that he “wasn’t an especially big puncher”, but that he would “not stop swinging until they were out cold, I’d hit them with fists, elbows, head, teeth and feet until they dropped and give best [surrendered]”.

Fury is well known in the boxing world and has been involved in many high-profile situations whilst supporting his son Tyson. After Tyson Fury defeated reigning 11-year champion Wladimir Klitschko in Dusseldorf on 27 November 2015, John Fury heavily criticised the media for the lack of faith they placed in his son before the fight. In the much-publicised speech at a post-fight press conference, Fury instructed the media to “stop being yes men” and ordered everybody in the room to give his son a standing ovation for his achievement.

His last professional fight was reportedly against Steve Garber at the G-Mex Centre in Manchester in 1995.

Fury’s professional boxing career spanned 8 years, beginning in April 1987 and ending in June 1995. In total, he was involved in 13 bouts.

He made his professional debut on 28 April 1987 when he fought Adam Fogerty in Halifax, West Yorkshire. He went on to win his next 6 fights until a draw with David Hopkins in Helsinki on 13 February 1989.
