O/T Tyson Fury

[redrobo]

Just read somewhere that Tyson and family are moving to the Isle of Man after buying a large property on the Island (neighbours of Keith no doubt).

Wonder what will happen to his gym at the Maz? Wonder if he intends to keep it ; sell it or donate it and the pitches back to the club?

Old story, that he was considering relocating. The property that he apparently viewed is up for rent, at about £10,000 per month. It belongs to John Whittaker, who used to own The Trafford Centre and still owns Heysham Port (among lots of other stuff). It was reported locally at the time (and on here) but I've not seen anything since.

My understanding from the article is that Tyson WILL be moving to the IoM and that he has already purchased the property.

Let's see shall we...he's always planning to move somewhere...it wasn't long a go he said he was going to up sticks and move closer to his family around Manchester way...he was planning a big farm/barn conversion but then they found out he had bats in his belfry...

I wonder why a multi millionaire would want to relocate to a tax haven????

[marky No.1]

It is stated that he will have a tax bill of £44,986,203.00 after tonights fight. If he was an I.O.Man resident this would be clearly a lot lot less hence why the mega rich 'live' in tax havens.

I think he will only pay tax if he brings the money into this country. I know a few people who have worked out there. Some have put their money in another country (a cuckoo account, so to speak!). May be different in these circumstances but it is just the start, if he fights Usyk again then Joshua he is going to make double bubble win or lose.

[twosheds]

Looks like he's still planning to move to Cheshire...he's submitted a planning application to Cheshire East Council to build an even bigger house than the one he currently has in Morecambe...apparently the council aren't impressed with the amount of trees he's wanting to cut down.....Isle of Man...Morecambe...Cheshire....Place your bets folks...

NOOOOOO !!!!!!

[Redalert1970]

Totally agree with Born Again Bill

As for the fight Tyson you were well beat by the better fighter

Also to use the war as an excuse for losing was very very low and uncalled for

Gone down in my estimation I'm afraid

With Tyson nearly being knocked out and having to take a count, the fight looked better for Usyk. The fight for me was close, it could have been 3-0 on the judges score card and it’s down to them, it could also have been a draw or Tyson getting the decision.

The second, tenth and eighth round could have been scored either way for me. All 3 to Usyk or Tyson, I had question marks who to give the round too! (The judge that gave Tyson the second round still had Usyk winning by 3 rounds!!) So all objective, the three people that matter had the fight for Usyk.

I had Tyson winning 6 rounds, Usyk 4 (with the 10-8 round) and then you had the 3 rounds I’ve talked about.

Tysons right hand hanging low against a man on the front foot who’s a southpaw, mmm, not good technique really. He also fought on the back foot to much.

No complaints that Usyk won, but if the rematch takes place a different Fury has to turn up. Usyk is a a phenomenal fighter but not unbeatable.

I bet he doesn’t fight young Moses.

Isaac Lowe won his fight on the same bill earlier. Well done Westgate Warrior.

[Wild Bill]

Gutted for fury but what a battle. Too much show boating though. More focus and he will win the rematch
