Full Description: Tyson Luke Fury(born 12 August 1988) is a British professional boxer.
He has held the World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight title since 2020.
Previously, he held the unified heavyweight titles from 2015 to 2016, and the Ring magazine title twice between 2015 and 2022.
He also held the International Boxing Organization (IBO) title during his first reign as champion.
With his defeat of Deontay Wilder, Fury became the third heavyweight, after Floyd Patterson and Muhammad Ali, to hold The Ring magazine title twice, and is widely considered by media outlets to be the lineal heavyweight champion.
As of December 2022, Fury is ranked as the world's best active heavyweight by BoxRec and ESPN he is also ranked sixth pound-for-pound by ESPN[13] and the Boxing Writers Association of America, and seventh by the Transnational Boxing Rankings Board.
Fury met his wife Paris (née Mullroy) when she was 15 and he was 17.
They began dating the year after they met, and married in 2008 at St. Peter in Chains Catholic Church in Doncaster, South Yorkshire.
The couple have seven children together: four sons (all named Prince) and three daughters. When Fury was asked why all of his sons had the first name Prince, he said, "I'm a king and they're princes until they earn their rightful name."
He named his first son Prince after Prince Naseem, his favourite British fighter.
Paris suffered a miscarriage before Fury's cancelled bout with Ustinov in 2014 and lost another child on the day of his comeback fight against Seferi in 2018.
