Tyson Fury explains the reason why all of his three sons are called Prince

World heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has revealed why he's named all of his three sons the exact same first name.

The self-proclaimed 'Gypsy King' has six kids with wife Paris - three daughters and three sons.

The couple's daughters are called Venezuela, Valencia and Athena, and they get their names from places because their mother's name.

But what about their sons? Why are they all called Prince? Well, Fury has revealed why he's called his three boys the same name.

Speaking in his Netflix documentary 'At Home with the Furys', he said: "I'm a king and they're princes until they earn their rightful name."

How does he tell them part? That's easy because their full names are Prince John James, Prince Tyson Fury II and Prince Adonis Amaziah.

The nine-episode series gives fans an insight into Fury's private life, but the filming of the documentary almost got too much for him as he wanted out a 'couple of weeks' in.

The 35-year-old said: "I wanted out. I was like, couple of weeks in, I said: 'Is there any way [out]?'

"I'd be on the phone with my lawyers. 'Is there any way I can get out of this? I don't know what I've signed up for again. I never said I'd do it again. I've done it again, I've made a mistake'."

The WBC kingpin hasn't fought since his stoppage victory over Dereck Chisora last December.

He had been linked with a blockbuster undisputed showdown against WBA, WBO and IBF title holder Oleksandr Usyk but talks broke down.

The undefeated boxer, however, will return to action on October 28 when he faces former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou in Saudi Arabia.
