When he was born doctors told his parents that there was a very low chance that he would survive, but later on it was totally proved wrong and he survived the obstacle so well like a phoenix.

When Tyson thinks about those words which doctors told to his parents he says that “the doctors told them that there was not much chance of living. His parents had lost 2 daughters the same way who was been born prematurely.

His father chose the name Tyson as he believed his baby was a fighter and survived his condition. During the time of Tyson’s birth, Mike Tyson was the undefeated heavyweight champion of the whole world.

And Fury’s mother had 14 pregnancies with only 4 among them surviving one among them was Tyson. When Tyson was 9 his mom got pregnant and gave birth to a girl child who unfortunately died after few weeks of being born.

This experience depressed and changed Tyson to a huge extend. The only way through which he threw his depression out was through boxing. His father was his trainer and trained him till 2011 when he went to jail. Exactly at the age of 11, Tyson left his school and accompanied his father and brothers as the laborers tarmacking roads.

But unfortunately the fight was postponed as Fury gained weight which reached to 100 pounds, which gave out a reason as “medically unfit” for the fight. And again this fight was postponed the second time after Tyson failed a drug test for cocaine.
