Tyson Fury Targeted by Butterbean for Boxing Match

2026-06-29 · Tyson Fury · Player Focus

Tyson Fury is the target of boxing legend Butterbean, who wants to face him after knocking out his 60-year-old father, John Fury, in a warm-up fight.

Butterbean, 58, has called out several big names, including Jake Paul, Mike Tyson, and Eddie Hall.

He wants to prove he can still compete at a high level after a dramatic 220lb weight loss.

Butterbean ballooned to 500lbs after retiring from combat sports, leaving him confined to a wheelchair.

Butterbean completed a remarkable body transformation and now wants to return to the ring.

He aims to prove that anyone can bounce back from adversity, saying "I wanna do one more fight to prove to people that no matter how down you get, if you believe in yourself like I believe in myself, you can accomplish anything."

Butterbean wants to have this fight this year, stating "I wanna do it this year, most definitely this year."

Butterbean told The Mirror, "I'd fight the old man first, beat him up, slap around him pretty good, and then I'd want to beat the son up pretty bad, I would love to fight Tyson Fury."

He views John Fury as an easy opponent, saying "His dad would be an easy fight, that'd be a couple-rounder, I'd be like, 'Go out there and just have fun and then get ready for the son,' it'd be a warm-up fight."

Butterbean believes in himself, saying "I mean, now that I believe in myself, I can do anything, and since I'm in such great shape, I know I can accomplish my goals."

Tyson Fury, the two-time heavyweight champion, is Butterbean's ultimate target, with the boxing legend seeking to test himself against the best.
