Tyson Fury Takes Drastic Action Amid Anthony Joshua Fight Rumours

Tyson Fury has made a major decision about his future ahead of a potential future fight with Anthony Joshua.

After over a year away from the sport, former two-time unified heavyweight champion Joshua returned to the boxing ring on Saturday in a bout with YouTuber Jake Paul.

Coming off of his devastating knockout loss to Daniel Dubois in September 2024, the Brit secured a knockout of his own in the sixth round of his return fight.

Since the win, conversations have of course turned to what could be next for Joshua, with several reports suggesting the highly-requested fight with Fury could finally happen next year.

But ahead of a potential fight with Joshua, Fury has made a massive change to his life that will no doubt impact his training for the bout.

Ahead of Joshua's fight with Paul, Fury sent his rival a message, threatening the former champion because of his comments heading into the fight.

The message came just hours after Frank Warren, Fury's promoter, confirmed that his fighter would come out of retirement to fight Joshua next year if the right offer was presented to him.

However, before he considers any offers sent to him, Fury is busy moving to the Isle of Man as the the heavyweight boxer has reportedly decided to 'quit the UK' due to Chancellor Rachel Reeves's recent decisions regarding tax.

The 37-year-old, who shares seven children with wife Paris, 36, has now moved to a massive £8million six-bedroom mansion near to the capital of Douglas.

For Fury, income tax is the Isle of Man is less than half of those in the mainland UK.

The Isle of Man higher tax rate is set at 21%, meanwhile in the mainland the tax rate is 4% for higher rate taxpayers and as much as 45% for those, like Tyson, earning over £125,140.

There is also a maximum of £220,000 on the amount of personal income paid by an individual annually and there is no capital gains tax or inheritance tax.

Therefore, Fury, who is believed to be worth more than £160m, has changed his legal residency to his new address, with Paris doing the same on her business documents.

The Fury family had been living in a property valued at more than £2m in Morecambe, Lancashire before the move.
