Tommy Fury will swap the ring for the pitch on Sunday when he steps out at Old Trafford to represent the World XI at this year's Soccer Aid.
Excitement is brewing for the event, but some have questioned why Fury, who was born and raised in Manchester, has opted to don the shirt of the World XI rather than the England one. However, that has since been cleared up as the young boxer is actually of Mauritian descent on his mother Chantal’s side, while his father John Fury is of Irish Traveller descent.
The World XI will be captained by Olympic icon Usain Bolt, much to the delight of Fury who claimed: "I used to watch Usain in all the Olympics and to be playing alongside him on a football pitch will be absolutely incredible.
