Tyson Fury is a bit of a character.
The new heavyweight world champion proved it with his mad antics just hours before beating Wladimir Klitschko…and then serenading 50,000 fans with a power ballad just after it.
The 6ft 9in star pretty much says what he likes, when he likes – and it has caused a fair bit of controversy of late – not least homophobic comments he made recently.
But despite the controversy, TV bosses obviously think the mad-cap Mancunian motor mouth would be television gold.
Producers believe a show with Fury and his family could be bigger than seminal reality TV show The Osbournes with Ozzy, Sharon and his kids.
The Daily Star report that his wife Paris is well up for inviting camera into their lives in the run up to the Klitschko rematch next year.
A source told the paper: “Paris in particular is keen. As she sees it, it is the family who have a massive fan base now, not just Tyson. Everything they do, they see it as a family affair.”
“Paris can see herself as a boxing WAG and thinks they could be the ‘first couple’ of boxing.
“There’s also talk of Klitschko wanting a rematch, so filming the lead-up to that would be worth watching.
“The only thing Tyson wants is a big say in how they come across.”
