Tyson Fury’s furious father John, 60, launches f-word tirade and storms into press conference to demand Carl Froch fights him in farcical launch of the Gypsy King’s comeback from retirement
John Fury launched a furious x-rated tirade at his long-term adversary Carl Froch on Monday afternoon.
At a press conference to preview Tyson Fury’s comeback fight against Arslanbek Makhmudov, Fury Snr stormed into the room before the event had begun to reignite his feud with ‘The Cobra’.
‘I’m John Fury, where the f*** are you, lets get it on,’ a furious Fury Snr began. ‘Where are you pal? Let’s get the f*** on it with it. Here I am, they talk about me day and night on video.
‘Here I am, I’m here to fight. Where are you? Where the f*** are you? The world’s been calling me a f***ing s***house.’
It was unclear what had led to Fury Snr’s sudden anger, but he has been involved in a long-running feud with the 48-year-old – and previously called him out for a fight at Wembley Stadium back in 2024.
Froch – whose work as a pundit has seemingly infuriated his rival – was present at the press conference as part of Netflix’s coverage, and the Gypsy King’s father continued his tirade against him.

‘Put some f***ing respect on the name of John Fury and get that f***ing Carl Froch here,’ he continued.
‘If he wants it I’m f***ing here and anybody else in this f***ing building. Look here, (I am) the ultimate f***ing meal.
‘Never f*** with this guy ever again. If you’re not willing to put up, f***ing shut up. Run like a f***ing b***h Carl Froch, run like a f***ing b***h.
‘All them f***ers calling me John Fury on the f***ing video like I’m afraid of any man that walks. I’m afraid of no man, only God almighty and I’m here to prove it to you all.
‘F*** this charade this is f***ing me, John Fury. I don’t give a f*** about no man. Put some f***ing respect on my name.
‘Because when they mentioned John Fury’s name, you run like a b***h Carl Froch. Don’t talk about me no more because I’ll come to knock your f***ing head in.’
Fury Snr was absolutely seething by this point before another video later saw him continuing his shouting inside the press conference room.
‘Treat me with some f***ing respect,’ he fumed. ‘I made all this happen so here’s the statement.
‘Here is the statement. Without the s***k in my bollocks all you f***ers wouldn’t have a f***ing paycheck. F*** you all.’
That wasn’t the end of the chaos though, with Fury Snr continue to wreak havoc once the press conference began.
With Tyson and Makhmudov both in place as the focus turned to the Gypsy King’s first fight since he reversed his January 2025 decision to retire from the sport, the 60-year-old swiftly rose to his feet after around 10 seconds.
He announced: ‘Can I stop you there? I’ve made my points here. Tyson I love you son. Spencer [Brown] come here, you are his manager.’
Fury Snr gave Tyson a kiss on the head before he walked off stage in bizarre scenes.
Froch has previously clashed with him over the years after being heavily critical of his role in Tyson’s career.
They have regularly thrown insults at each other, with Froch slamming Tyson in February 2024 when he was forced to pull out of his world title fight against Oleksandr Usyk at late notice due to a cut to his face that he picked up sparring.
Fury Snr, who had previously labelled Froch a ‘s***house’ and threatened to ‘kick him up the a***’ among other insults, then called out the 48-year-old for a fight at Wembley Stadium.
At the time of writing, Froch was yet to respond to Fury Snr’s latest tirade against him.
