In a shocking move, heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has reportedly parted ways with his trainer, none other than his own father, John Fury. This decision comes after Fury’s surprise defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in their recent title fight.
The news sent ripples through the boxing world. John Fury has been a constant presence in Tyson’s corner throughout his career, acting as both trainer and confidante. However, the brutal loss to Usyk appears to have prompted a significant change.
While official reasons haven’t been revealed, speculation points towards a potential disagreement in strategy or a desire for a fresh perspective in Fury’s training camp. Some boxing analysts have even pointed to criticisms directed at John Fury’s corner work during the Usyk fight.
