Tyson Fury once took to social media to share a picture of the bill to show much he spent on fans.

Fury returns to the ring on Saturday night as he rematches Oleksandr Usyk in a huge world heavyweight championship rematch in Riyadh.

The Gypsy King suffered his first ever professional defeat against the Ukrainian via split decision back in May. He pocketed around £100 million from the superfight and is expected to collect another handsome sum for his exploits in the squared circle.

But while Fury has made millions from his incredible boxing career, he showed his generosity many years ago when he splashed out on drinks for England supporters.

After pulling out of a WBO, WBA and IBO heavyweight rematch with Wladimir Klitschko following a swollen ankle, Fury joined three Lions fans over in Nice at Euro 2016.

Wearing his England shirt, Fury was filmed signings songs in the streets with fans, who he chanted "Fury gets the rounds in!"

In a busy bar in Nice's old town, he then asked the fans, "What does everybody want?" and was met with chants about Jagerbombs.

Jaegermeister shots were then mixed with Red Bull and Fury splashed out on 200 of them, with his entire bill coming to €1,000.

He shared a copy of his receipt on X, formerly known as Twitter, with the caption: "This is how much I love my fans, Euro 2016, 200 jager bombs, for the fans."

The two-time world champion was met with chants of "Fury's on fire!" before leaving the bar after 25 minutes.

Fury has the chance to become a three-time world champion with victory against Usyk on Saturday night, though he has already admitted his main motivation is a financial one.

"I'm only doing it for the money, obviously. All prize-fighters, if they tell the truth, do it for the money. I don't want to work for f*** all, I want to earn as much as I can get.

"I want the easiest fights possible for the largest amounts of money. I don't want the toughest fights possible for the least amount. I wasn't born on a Christmas cracker."
