Paris Fury has revealed the ONE thing John Fury hasn't done in the 18 years she's got to know him in a surprising revelation.

'Big' John, father of former world heavyweight champion Tyson, made plenty of headlines during the week of his son's undisputed clash against Oleksandr Usyk in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

He shockingly headbutted a member of Usyk's team in a moment of madness which was widely condemned by fans and critics alike.

Tony Bellew was among the critics slamming the 59-year-old, who fired back in a furious rant on the eve of the showdown between Fury and Usyk.

He's no stranger to controversy, having trashed the pre-fight press conference between KSI and Tommy Fury.

But 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."
