Fury Unsure if Dad Will Attend Comeback Fight

On Saturday, heavyweight champion Tyson Fury returns to the ring against Arslanbek Makhmudov at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, ending a 16-month hiatus after reversing his retirement decision for the fifth time.
Uncertainty surrounds John Fury's attendance, as he told the Daily Mail his relationship with his son is "destroyed completely," marking a sharp turn from his consistent presence throughout Tyson's career.
Fury remains adamant the event will reach full capacity, telling ITV's Good Morning Britain that more than 60,000 spectators will attend despite slower ticket sales than his 94,000-seat Wembley sellout.
Training in Thailand, Tyson Fury told reporters on Wednesday he is focused solely on beating Makhmudov, dismissing paternal concerns by stating attendance "is not an important thing to me at all."
Netflix will broadcast the high-stakes comeback live as Fury seeks to "make boxing great again," positioning the bout as a pivotal moment to move past recent family and professional drama.
