The WBC heavyweight champion doesn’t seem to know what to do in his retirement.
Tyson Fury seems impatient with retirement and he doesn’t know what to do with himself. This time, the WBC heavyweight champion decided he wanted to sponsor a football club.
Since the boxer did not have enough money for a Premier League representative, he decided to take a simpler club. As a result, Tyson’s selection fell to moderate Morecambe – playing in England’s third division.
There they could not be said to be happy with the honor. And even though the contract is only for one year, the 2022/23 season, Morecambe announced that they hope to continue the cooperation.
And the head of the team’s commercial department, Martin Thomas, immediately awarded Fury the title of a fantastic ambassador. It should be noted that the contract provides for the placement on the club uniform of a brand advertisement developed by the boxer – Gypsy King.
Morecambe FC is proud to announce a commercial deal that will see the two -time World Heavyweight Champion @Tyson_Fury sponsor home and fight playing shorts, for 2022/23 @SkyBetLeagueOne season.#UTS ⁇

“Tyson is a fantastic ambassador for Morecambe and it is incredible that we can afford to partner with him. Tyson is one of the most recognizable names in the world of sports and he will bring worldwide recognition to club.
He will join the ever -growing list of commercial partners, including local and national brands and local businesses the club has signed with in recent seasons. We already have a huge reach around the world, and with this collaboration, we will further assert ourselves on the global stage, ”Morecambe said.
In turn, the boxer was not very talkative and just said he was glad to have the opportunity to support his local club in a similar way.
“I love Morecambe and am very good at supporting my local club,” Fury said.
