John Fury brands British fans ‘traitors’ and claims Tyson Fury will NEVER fight in the UK again for one reason
John Fury hit out at British fans ahead of Tyson Fury’s clash against Oleksandr Usyk.
John Fury says Tyson Fury will NEVER fight in the UK again for ONE reason ahead of his son’s blockbuster clash against Oleksandr Usyk.
Tyson will defend his WBC title against Usyk, who puts his WBA (super), IBF and WBO titles on the line this Saturday.
The showdown, which takes place Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, will crown an undisputed heavyweight champion.
The self-proclaimed ‘Gypsy King’ is contracted to rematch the Ukrainian following their meeting this weekend, before potentially facing off against domestic rival Antony Joshua.
But a potential all-British showdown against Joshua WON’T take place on British soil as ‘Big’ John has claimed his son will only fight in the Middle East.
“Tyson Fury and the Fury family will only fight again in Saudi Arabia,” he said. “This is where our heart is, we love it, the people love us. Long live Saudi Arabia!”
The unbeaten boxing star hasn’t fought in the UK since his bout against Dereck Chisora back in December 2022, having fought Francis Ngannou at the Kingdom Arena in Saudi Arabia.

“I can’t express how much I enjoy this country and the people,” he said. “And I just want to be like them… because the worst man in Saudi Arabia is better than John Fury.
“The Brits are traitors, aren’t they?” The 59-year-old exclaimed.
“Forget Great Britain, our heart, look here, beating in my body, is in Saudi Arabia because we get treated like proper people, how we deserve to be treated.”
He went onto say that Britain had never made him ‘feel well’ and because ‘they could not get behind the champion’, they stand to miss out.
Tyson fought the majority of his career at home before venturing to Germany to face Wladimir Klitschko.
He then returned to the sport with two bouts in the UK, including one in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
The 35-year-old took on Tom Schwarz, Otto Wallin and Deontay Wilder in the State, with his future fights set to take place in Saudi Arabia.
