Inside Tyson Fury and Paris's big gypsy party: Boxing champion and wife host huge 'last minute' bash for John Fury's 60th birthday celebration
Tyson Fury and his wife pulled out all the stops as they threw a massive party to celebrate John Fury's 60th birthday. John, who has been by his son's side for most of his biggest fights, turns 60 today, and got an early present from the Gypsy King and his other half, Paris. Tyson and Paris organised a huge event at the Mottram Hall in Cheshire, and despite Paris insisting it was put together at the 'last minute' there was no expense spared. Paris uploaded some photos and videos of the party on Instagram, with John being caught by surprise as he entered a silent, crowded room before the guests burst into song to wish him a happy birthday. It was very much a family affair, with Tyson's younger brother, Hughie, also celebrating his 29th birthday. Tyson and Paris dressed to impress, with the former heavyweight champion boxer donning a slick white suit with flowers on it, while his wife dazzled in a gold dress. The couple have seven children together, and they were also at the plush country house estate to join the party. A live singer was hired, with Paris filming her belting out Amy Winehouse's classic hit 'Valerie', before John - never short of a word or two - took the microphone to thank everyone for celebrating his birthday with him. 'I'd just like to say, a total shock but I'm very pleased to see everybody,' he said. 'All my cousins, everyone I've known all my life. Kids, grandkids, whatever. All friends of mine, thank you very much.' He was then seen sitting down and beaming as he opened a present, which appeared to be a picture frame. There were plenty of family photos to mark the special occasion, before Tyson and Paris took to the main stage to dance the night away. A buffet was laid on for all the guests, and, of course, the party wouldn't be complete without a chocolate fountain. John's big day comes amid increasing speculation that Tyson is set to perform another retirement U-turn and return to the ring in the coming months. Tyson announced he was hanging up his gloves back in January after suffering his second defeat by Oleksandr Usyk the previous month. The Furys managed to keep it a secret before bursting into song when John arrived, with Tyson (front right) one of the first to greet his dad Paris posed for photos with friends and family after pulling out all the stops for her father-in-law's party A buffet was laid on for all the guests alongside a small bar There was also an extravagant chocolate fountain on show at the party But he has been lured back to the squared circle on multiple occasions before, and it appears he is getting itchy knuckles once again. The 36-year-old has revealed he is back in the gym, and he posted a video of himself linking back up with his trainer in April. Tyson then gave another hint on Monday that he will be making a return when he shared a clip of himself and his dad walking with a spring in their step for a 'business meeting'. Should he opt to make a comeback, British fight fans may finally get the chance to see Tyson in a long-awaited showdown with Anthony Joshua. A trilogy bout with Usyk is also a possibility, but the Ukrainian is due to face Daniel Dubois in an undisputed clash on July 19 at Wembley Stadium first.

Meet James Dean Fury, the latest pro boxer in Tyson and Tommy Fury's fighting family who sounds exactly like Gypsy King
THE FURY family is arguably the most well-known in the history of British boxing. The biggest and most boisterous name in the fighting family is, undoubtedly, former two-time heavyweight champion Tyson. 6 6 6 6 Tyson's younger brothers Tommy and Roman, who both fought in Budapest last week, are also trying to make their own way in the brutal sport. As is Tyson's cousin, Hughie, who is on a seven-fight win streak after coming unstuck against retired heavyweight title contender Alexander Povetkin in 2019. Tyson's other cousins, Hosea Burton and Nathan Gorman, are also professional boxers who compete at light-heavyweight and heavyweight respectively. But another member of the massive Fury family has quietly been making a name for himself in the sport. Super-middleweight prospect James Dean is the latest Fury to pursue the dream of becoming a world champion. James - the grandson of Jimmy Fury, who is the brother of coaches John and Peter - has been competing as an amateur since October 2021 and has amassed an 8-1 record in his nine outings. The 19-year-old's sole defeat came in April 2024 at the hands of Oladimeji Shittu. But he's bounced back with a whopping five wins in the space of TWO MONTHS.

James, the cousin of Brit icon Tyson, who he SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE, will bid to add another Box Cup title to his trophy cabinet in the 2025 tournament later this month. Tyson Fury's dad rips into son's corner and claims he saved Gypsy King getting KO'd by Oleksandr Usyk (main) And under the watchful eye of head coach Peter, he plans to utilise the famed Fury style to become a world champion at 168lbs. During an appearance on Sky Sports, he said: "Of course there's a Fury styling, you know. "Like I said earlier, you know, you gotta be a Fury to perfect it. "You know what I mean? It's in the blood, isn't it? And look, I'm training every day. "I've I've got my head down and I'm I'm fully focused and committed on what I want in life and what I want in my career. "I'm training every day. I've got my head down. "And I'm fully focused and committed on what I want in life and what I want in my career. "And soon enough, everybody will know the name James Dean Fury. "Because as soon as I turn professional, I will light up the super middleweight division and I'll come for everything."
