    Tyson Fury Donating Purse From Wilder Fight

    Is my memory off or did Tyson Fury say he was going to donate his purse?

    That's what he said. I dunno if he did it or not because no one followed up on it, to my knowledge.

      Tyson Fury is known for his charitable giving around his hometown of Morecambe, and in Manchester. He doesn't do it to look good in the media, majority of the time it isn't even covered. He is revered in those areas for giving back to the communities. Tyson said he would donate his purse from the Wilder fight to help build housing and provide services for people suffering with addiction and living homeless. Apparently his purse was £2.5m but his total earnings were closer to £7m. The only people who have been openly critical of Fury, and questioned his sincerity, are the likes of Eddie Hearn. Real lecherous folks. The Gypsy King wasn't trying to make headlines, wasn't looking for praise, he stated it in a matter of fact way. Think he had said it off camera and then got pressed about it on camera by someone like Michelle Joy Phelps.

        If it's his business then he shouldn't say he's gonna donate it in front of a camera for publicity.

            That is what he said but there is no known proof he did that. Maybe he did and maybe he didn't. He is a big bragger and not a guy I would believe without any doubt.

              Shrewd move. Gets the plaudits.

              If Joshua did this he would be called out for virtue signalling but Tyson Fury has a man of the people persona so gets away with it.

                Fury is one of the biggest farces ironically.
