Tyson Fury's son tells dad he wants to be "like Deontay Wilder" when he grows up

Tyson Fury's six-year-old son Adonis has been filmed hilariously telling his dad he wants to be like Deontay Wilder when he grows up.

Heavyweight world champion Fury won his title from Wilder in their rematch in 2020 before successfully defending it against the American in their trilogy bout last year. Fury went on to stop Dillian Whyte at Wembley last month before announcing his plan to retire from the ring.

And in a video posted to his Instagram page, Fury asks his son what his name is, and then hold old he is. He then asks Adonis what he wants to when he grows up, to which he answers: "A boxer". Fury then asks which boxer he wants to be like and Adonis says, "Deontay Wilder". Fury responds by saying, "No way... he's a dosser!"
