Paris Fury once made a surprising revelation about John Fury as she revealed the ONE thing he hasn’t done in the 18 years she’s got to know him.
‘Big’ John, father of Tyson, will be in his son’s corner as he looks to reclaim the world heavyweight titles against Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday.
The Ukrainian edged out the Brit by split decision to become the undisputed champion in their first fight back in May.
John made headlines for all the wrong reasons in the lead up to their first meeting as he attacked a member of Usyk’s team.
But Tyson’s wife Paris sees a different side of John and admitted that she has never heard him raise his voice at home, calling him a ‘soft’ man.
Speaking to Rob Moore, she said: “He is as loud and boisterous and scary in real life but underneath it he’s just a soft man.
“Truth is he’s just a good guy. He’s a father, he’s a grandfather and he’ll come in play with the kids. He’ll have a visit; he’ll chat with the children.”

Paris added: “He ain’t really what you see because when you see him you probably see him in like an interview and he’s all irate and he’s in that fight mode.
“All of the Fury’s, they all have fight mode… fight mode is serious and it’s intense and it’s loud and it’s aggressive.”
Jokingly asked if he’s flipped a table at home, she replied: “Never, no!
“He’s barely raised his voice at home. I’ve actually never heard him raise his voice at home.
“Never heard ‘Big’ John shouting… he’s actually quite calm when you think about it… and actually that’s kind of strange when I think about it.”
