Description

Boxing is a very particular kind of sport, with one foot in the entertainment world and another in murky backrooms. A lot of it has already been told in his previous books but it makes no difference because it's all relevant, and keeps you updated. Yet while he has clearly suffered, there is also a sense that the illness is a cloak that covers all questionable behaviours, repositioning him as victim rather than perpetrator. He's 6ft 9in, nimble and a boxing great - but it's the Gypsy King's internal monologue that makes him No 1.

He discloses deeply moving new stories: in the weeks before the biggest fight of his career, Tyson was sleeping on a hospital floor in intensive care tending to his baby daughter, Athena, who was born premature and fighting for her life. Tyson Fury in his rematch with US boxer Deontay Wilder for the WBC world heavyweight championship in Las Vegas, February 2020. He shares fascinating blow-by-blow accounts of his inspiring victories against Deontay Wilder and Dillian Whyte, his recovery from the depths of depression, and his journey to reclaiming his world heavyweight title. This book concludes with providing information and a motivational message for any people struggling with their own health issues.Tyson shares fascinating blow-by-blow accounts of his inspiring victories against Deontay Wilder and Dillian Whyte, his recovery from the depths of depression, and his journey to reclaiming his world heavyweight title. The most talented British heavyweight since Lennox Lewis (who boxed for Canada in the 1988 Seoul Olympics) and, some would argue (including Fury himself), the best in history, he has made some shockingly homophobic and antisemitic comments in the past.

He’s a mighty and furious legend, but soft and vulnerable, he shows this in his book and it’s really important to hear about this side.Tyson was victorious in the second fight against Deontay Wilder in February 2020, defeating his opponent by seventh-round technical knockout. 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. With revealing intimacy, Tyson also shares new sides to his character: in the weeks before the biggest fight of his career in 2021 the devoted father was sleeping on a hospital floor in intensive care tending to his new-born daughter Athena who was born premature and fighting for her life. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data. 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.

Born and raised in Manchester, Fury weighed just 1lb at birth after being born three months premature.

I love Tyson and what he’s achieved against all the odds just shows what strong character he really is regardless of his mental health battles. He describes how his Traveller upbringing forged him, and how his fighting family, including dad John and his brothers, have sustained him. There is no mention, for example, of Daniel Kinahan, the alleged Irish gangster based in Dubai, whom Fury publicly thanked in 2020 for his work as a boxing promoter.
