Match of the spray!
Tyson tans for Comic Relief



Boxing heavyweight sensation proved he was a good sport when he stripped-off to be sprayed-tanned all in the name of Comic Relief.
The man dubbed in the media of late as ‘The Real Big Gypsy Hard Man’ the undefeated, 6 foot 9” current English Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury took time out of his intense training schedule to have the UK’s leading Spray Tan- Puri-Tan come along to his gym and give him some colour in aid of Comic Relief.

Tyson has been making waves in the media- not just because of his unblemished record of 14 fights 14, wins with 10 of those wins coming by way of knock-out, but also because of his Irish Traveller background and his outspoken views of the depiction of travellers in programmes such as My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding.

Tyson is in a heavy training regime at the moment as purse-bids are now open for him to fight for the British Heavyweight Title against current holder Dereck Chisora.

Tyson said: “I feel honoured to do what I can to help support a worthwhile cause such as Comic Relief. Even boxers have a heart and are not afraid to strip off and have a spray-tan. In this sport and particularly when you’re my size- you can feel quite secure in your masculinity! It’s for a good cause and that’s all that matters.”

oh. my. god.

Say no more.

Got a small knob hasn't he?

not his biggest fans but got to have respect for tyson for doing this.

Good on him doing something for comic relief but there should be a warning on those pictures.

Is that what it takes to get your respect? Fighting Chisora would get mine

How weird, I've just used that:

http://news.boxrec.com/news/2011/tyson- ... mic-relief

to be fair though, he looks to have lost a few pounds and is looking in better shape ahead of the chisora fight

I can't beleive Tyson was able to put himself through the agony of........... getting a spray tan He was due one anyway, this has probably just saved him a £100 (or however much they cost)

Fair play for getting involved tyson, but how about a sponsored 'No MacDonalds' next time

The spray bottle must have had something special in that makes people open their mouths in a gormless fashion

Good cause though.

The bird who's giving him the spray looks quite saucy. Nice trousers.

I hope Chisora is laughing, 'cause he's going to be crying when Fury sparks him out.

Why is he standing on his tip toes ?

Best shape I've seen Fury in. About sodding time, too.

yeah he does look in good shape.

I know I was quite surprised as well, he has shifted the timber quite well in how much of a good shape actually is and you have got to give him kudos for doing the tan for charity.
