‘The Gypsy King’ has lived in Morecambe for the majority of his life, and continues to do so now, so felt that he should help out his local soccer team by sponsoring them for the next season.
Morecambe FC play in Sky Bet League One, the third division of football in England. But now with Fury’s sponsorship and money rolling in, who knows, they could mount a challenge for promotion this year!

Could Tyson Fury Fight Anthony Joshua Next?
Provided Anthony Joshua wins his rematch on August 20th with Oleksandr Usyk, which is no guarantee, could we see this all-British super-fight between Joshua and Fury land on UK shores next year?
If Joshua beats Usyk, he will regain the WBA Super, WBO and IBF world heavyweight titles. If the British pair then fought next year, all four world heavyweight championships would be on the line in what we be a magnanimous event for British boxing. It would be the biggest all British fight ever without a shadow of a doubt.
Fury had this to say about the potential Joshua fight:
