Tyson Fury's dad shares surprising reason he turned down son’s £500k Rolls Royce offer
. He recalled: “I see the price. It’s a £500,000 car. I said, ‘She doesn’t need that to do the school run.’ We had a little bit of an argument and he said, ‘No dad, it’s yours. "You are driving a 30-year-old car around.’”
According to Birmingham Live, John was “gobsmacked” but told Tyson: “It’s not me. I’m not a poser and I don’t want to try to be in anybody’s face. I don’t want to make people jealous. I love my VW. It’s got memories from when I was a young man.” John admitted to freebets.com he was choked up by his son’s generosity.He added: “But give me a cheese sandwich, a cup of tea and put me a western on and I’m away.
The 34-year-old boxer is currently struggling to book a fight because he's not stepped in the ring since his lacklustre trilogy fight against Derek Chisora. Although, he is due to fight fellow heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia at the end of the year after his Ukrainian rival recently signed a deal with Skills Challenge Promotions, who have also teased a "premium offer" for Fury, reports the Mirror.
John has warned his son to ditch his current team, including coach SugarHill Steward, before his next fight as he told Stamina For Sale: "Tyson likes different people around him telling him how great he is. I’ll tell them straight, if it’s not working I’ll say it’s not working. In Tyson’s case, he don’t like the truth, but I’m going to tell him it anyway because he’s my son and it’s on his best interests.
“All the SugarHills, everybody out there, they’re all 10% men. They’re all after the 10%. It’s a business, you can’t blame them. They’re thinking of their own ends and making a living. But it’s up to you to have enough brains to see through that. You don’t move them out of their job. Don’t make a friend out of them, or get close to them."
