Gloves Off: Tyson Fury Autobiography

Product Information

The No-Holds-Barred Autobiography - including the full story behind Tyson's record-breaking victory against Dillian Whyte at Wembley stadium in front of 94,000 people Sometimes, the whole “Gypsy King” showman drama – being carried to the ring on a throne in one of the Wilder fights – may occlude Fury’s genuinely impressive achievements in the ring. The man himself says it’s just an act, designed to maximise attention and therefore viewers and profit. Perhaps, but this is a guy who refers to himself in the third person and it’s just possible that the act has taken up more permanent residence in his personality. Larger than life is all very well for the length of a boxing promotion, but it can soon become tiring in life.

Tyson Fury is the undefeated lineal heavyweight champion of the world. Born and raised in Manchester, Fury weighed just 1lb at birth after being born three months premature. His father John named him after Mike Tyson. Funny, frank and never less than entertaining, this is Tyson Fury at his very best, as you have never read before.It’s my most insightful book yet – the laughs, the hard times, the family man, the craziness of what it’s like to be Tyson. I hope you like it and I hope it might help you, whatever you’re going through. Remember, Nothing is impossible.”

Hello and welcome to Riyadh’s Kingdom Arena for tonight’s crossover match between Tyson Fury and Francis Ngannou. It’s been billed as the Battle of the Baddest: a scheduled 10-round boxing match between the finest heavyweight boxer of his generation, unbeaten in 34 paying fights, against a former UFC champion with no professional boxing experience who hasn’t fought in nearly two years. It doesn’t take an expert to know how this one will play out. The Saudi state lifted the ban on women being able to drive in June 2018 but Loujain and Lina claim that far more serious forms of repression have escalated.

About the Author: Tyson Fury is the undefeated lineal heavyweight champion of the world. Born and raised in Manchester, Fury weighed just 1lb at birth after being born three months premature. His father John named him after Mike Tyson. Finally, I am thankful that Tyson is happy to be candid about his own battles with his mental health. It's great that he is open and honest about this, though I do wish he wouldn't use even this to push the barrow of his victory over all odds. It's OK not to be OK, but it's also OK to continue to struggle with something for the rest of your life. This audiobook includes exclusive and deeply personal interviews with Tyson Fury throughout the audiobook, offering listeners a unique and intimate insight into his life and mind.

Shipments to the USA & Canada: I’m far more interested in Fury’s next bout, again in Riyadh, when he faces Oleksandr Usyk, the IBF, WBA and WBO champion on 23 December. The winner will become the first undisputed world heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis held all the belts in 1999. “It’s the fight of the century,” Fury says. “So it’s obviously a meaningful fight.” Family life, his traveller upbringing, beating Deontay Wilder in the ring and more are just some of the never-before-told topics he will be touch upon in the book. Contrary to early reports, tonight’s fight is not an exhibition and will count as an official bout. However, Fury’s WBC heavyweight title will not be on the line. Tyson Fury is a fascinating character who has lived an amazing life. One expects a multiple world boxing champ to be a chiseled specimen, but somehow this man who describes himself as a "dad-bod" has defeated many of those muscle-bound men.A boxing phenomenon...the anarchic and enormous sports star may prove to be the last of the boxing greats' - John Sutherland, The Times But we groundlings love a sideshow and always have, making us susceptible to promotional stunts like these for as as long as anyone can remember. There was Ali’s risible fight with the Japanese pro wrestler Antonio Inoki in 1976, widely regarded as the most embarrassing moment of the Greatest’s career. There were Jesse Owens’ lamentable match races against thoroughbred horses, a humiliating comedown for the Olympic hero who had stared down Hitler in Berlin. There was the much-ballyhooed 150m race between Donovan Bailey and Michael Johnson at Toronto’s SkyDome to determine the title of world’s fastest man. And, of course, Floyd Maywether v Conor McGregor, perhaps the closest analogue to the mundanity afoot. Tyson's book reveals surprising and personal new sides to his character: he opens up about his fairy-tale romance with beloved wife Paris, and their down-to-earth life raising six beautiful children. He describes how his Traveller upbringing forged him, and how his fighting family, including dad John and his brothers, have sustained him. I’ve learned that it’s not the material things that matter, and despite my ‘success’ I know my mental health struggles won’t go away and it’s a daily fight.
