      He gave it to "charity"?

      Anyone have contact details for "charity"? I might donate too.

          Not sure if they're saying he got £2.5m basic pay, then donated £7m from the PPV revenue to charity. Also, you bunch of fooking morons, he likely didn't just hand it over to some fatcat business man. He is always seen out and about in his local community in Morecambe, and the wider Lancashire area. He probably is on the ground giving this money to worthwhile causes. Charity could also be considered helping the less fortunate in the travelling community. As if he just gave it away to some private charity owner.

            Didn't he say after boxing he was going to become a Doctor?

            He's a gypsy from a family of criminals. Don't trust a word he says ever.
            I personally don’t believe he donated his entire purse. I could see him giving a couple of hundred grand to a charity but I don’t believe all these media PR stuff.

              Don't know about Fury's entire history.
              In his faceoff with Wilder, he was mentioning God,
              some bible verses, if I remember correctly, how
              nobody can scare him, all that religious stuff.
              So it's possible.

                    The point was, I highly doubt he just bank transferred it to some rich "charity" execs.

                      When you know you have a gig or two coming up which pays you this much again or more, you can give this away in the confidence that there's plenty more where that came from.

                      That said, it is a wonderfully generous thing and hopefully it is put to good use.
                      I can't respect Mayweather and his half dozen Bugatti's and collection of diamond encrusted sunglasses.
                      We got class like Pacquiao and Fury and then there's Mayweather and Broner.
