Tyson Fury jokes he will keep fighting until he’s 65 as wife Paris eyes seventh child

Tyson Fury revealed his wife Paris wants a seventh child - moments after crushing Derek Chisora to defend his WBC heavyweight title.

Fury and wife Paris - who have been married since 2008 - have six children and their eldest two kids were in attendance as he cruised to victory in the voluntarily defence of his title against Chisora.

A battered Chisora could barely lay a glove on the Gypsy King in a predictably one-sided trilogy fight. Fury unleashed a brutal beating on 'Del Boy', who was belatedly saved by referee Victor Loughlin as the fight was stopped in the 10th round.

Paris watched on as Fury dished out ruthless punishment - assuming total control with searing punches against the forlorn Chisora before the bout was finally waved with the veteran's right eye almost sealed completely shut.

Fury and Chisora, good friends outside of the ring, feasted on a Five Guys as they shared a warm embrace and conversation backstage at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. And during the lengthy exchange, Fury detailed how his wife Paris is keen on another child.

Chisora's two daughters Angelina and Harare were introduced to Fury in the changing room after the fight, and Fury asked 'WAR' if he was planning on having anymore children. "I need my wife to hang out with your wife," Chisora joked.

Fury replied: "My wife said to me today, she said it'll be more noisy when we get another one this year - I said what are you doing!" Chisora then asked if he wanted one more child. "Listen, I'll take what the good lord will give me," Fury added. "I will, keep it going. I'll have to keep fighting until I'm 65!"

Fury became a father for the sixth time when childhood sweetheart Paris gave birth to their third daughter last August. The couple's six children are named Venezuela, Valencia Amber, Athena, Prince John James, Prince Tyson Fury II and Prince Adonis Amaziah.

And Venezuela, 13, and Prince, 11, were allowed to attend last night's big fight in north London, with Paris giving in to her children's demands after previously making the decision not to let them see their dad in action in the ring.

"Family, can’t believe their [sic] at the fight," Paris had posted on Instagram, with a pre-fight family photo. "I always said it’s not a place for little kids but their [sic] not little kids no more, 11 & 13 and wanted to come soooo bad. So here we go! Come on @tysonfury."
