Tyson Fury, along with his father John and brother Shane, is currently embroiled in a legal battle over an alleged unpaid tax bill and car parking debt totaling £82,000 from their £1 million mansion in Styal, Cheshire. The family is reported to be using a plot of land next to their father’s home for caravans and motorhomes. The case is scheduled to be heard at Chester magistrates’ court on Tuesday, with the possibility of a legal order demanding payment or potential enforcement action by bailiffs. Cheshire East Council emphasizes their duty to pursue debt to safeguard public funds amid financial pressures.
Tyson Fury, renowned as the Gypsy King, recently featured in a Netflix documentary series, “At Home With the Furys,” providing insight into his life with wife Paris and their children in a £1.7 million home in Morecambe. Despite the off-ring challenges, Fury, with a record of 34-0-1, 24 KOs, has risen to become one of the top pound-for-pound boxers globally, surpassing Anthony Joshua in British boxing recognition. Returning to the sport in 2018 after a three-year hiatus due to mental health struggles, Fury claimed the WBC championship by defeating Deontay Wilder in their 2020 rematch.
The 35-year-old fighter has continued to showcase his prowess, defending his title with victories over Dillian Whyte in April 2022 and a late stoppage of Derek Chisora in December. Known for his creativity, resilience, and heart in the ring, Fury, a former holder of multiple heavyweight titles, aims to regain them in a 2024 bout against Oleksandr Usyk. As legal proceedings unfold, the heavyweight champion faces potential financial repercussions from the council, adding a legal dimension to his already eventful journey in and out of the ring.
