He said on Episode 3 of Fury Uncovered: “I’ve always had a family throughout my career in boxing. I’ve missed a few births, missed three births. But I suppose it’s part of my job.
“I’ve got a job to do. I’ve got to pay the bills, I’ve got to look after the family, I’ve got to keep them in clothes and food and all that sort of stuff. It’s my job to do what I do.”
Fury added: “My two lives are so different. One life is the life of a superstar boxer and an athlete. The other is just being a normal everyday dad. It’s difficult to switch between both of them but that’s why we have camps and we leave our families.”
