HOMESICK Tyson Fury is not speaking to his family at his US combat camp. Or he would jump on the first flight home.
The British world heavyweight champion is very soft with his six children.
Particularly Athena, baby girl who was born in August after a terrible birth.
He had to fly to Las Vegas, September 18, ahead of Deontay Wilder's Trilogy Showdown. However, he was forced to miss Prince's 10th birthday and Venezuela's 12th birthday.
Paris, Wife, shared a video of her daughter crying and asking for help on social media.
The 19-year-old Gypsy King is not able to bear the thought of video calling his adoring family back in Morecambe, 6ft 9in tall.
He has now cut himself off with the people he most loves.
The WBC champion said: "I can't flip a toggle from being Daddy Daycare, to Baddest Man on the Planet.
"So whatever is happening at home, in family life, that just needs to be there.
"While I'm at camp, I have no direct involvement in what's happening at home.
"It sounds very selfish for me to be out in Las Vegas and not communicating with my family.
"But I have a serious job here and if my phone was ringing to my children every day, I wouldn’t want to be there."
"Right now I'm putting mine neck on the line so they have food.
"I am willing to put my life on the line for their good lives and they must see that.
"That's why we go to training camps for months, to get out of it all."
Fury, 33, spends two months in Sin City with his training team, training like Trojans, and living like monks.
Athena was unable to fly because of his health problems.
The proud multi-millionaire traveller and multimillionaire insists that his children will learn and make their own way in this world. However, he said they should be strong enough to handle life without him.
Fury stated that he had only been gone for three weeks when the fight came around. This is unusual. I've been away for eight weeks.
"But I had a lot back home problems and that's caused me to be here for three weeks. But it's not the end of the universe.
"If they are unable to deal with me for three weeks, then there is a problem."
Fury spends months with American trainer Sugar Hill Steward and his cousin, Andy Lee (former world champion and assistant trainer).
Travel restrictions meant that Fury was only able to spend a few days in the UK with the Detroit ex-cop before they flew off to Nevada. Lee missed out entirely.
Fury believes that his preparations were not perfect but that the pain he feels seven days before the fight means he's on track to put on another spectacular display.
Fury said, "I feel terrible, absolutely terrible."
"But, if you went to an eight-week training camp and felt like you were just getting through the day, it's not right.
"If you put your body through eight weeks of brutal training, sparring with four to five men each day, and feel great, then you are a bionic human being."
"But in a week, I will feel amazing. Right now, my body is sore and I feel pain.
Wilder attributed Fury's beating of Wilder in February 2020 to everyone else than himself.
American even accused his American rival of loading his gloves in metal objects and bribing him.
Fury is grateful Wilder is on his side to pay him another day, especially after losing the PS200m fight against Anthony Joshua to Oleksandr Uzyk.
When asked if he would prefer that the Wilder fight not be ordered by a judge so he could target other divisions, he replied: "I don't wish for time to go." I love every moment of my life.
"Life is too short to wish Wilder wasn't here." Every day that I'm alive, I cherish it.
"I don't think Deontay is sick, he keeps giving me money which makes my family have a better lifestyle.
"Whoever it may be, I get paid to go into there and do a job, put up a show, entertain, and then go home. It will be the exact same."
Wilder's blame game grew to include the firing of Mark Breland, former Olympic and world champion, from his coaching staff for trying to save himself.
He also fired the designers responsible for his heavy ring-walk dress, claiming that it was a waste of his time and energy.
However, his baseless attempts at tarnish Fury’s coronation aren’t getting under the Brit’s skin.
The Gypsy King stated: "I don’t think you can get more convincing a win."

“It was the most one-sided heavyweight beatdown I’ve seen of an undefeated world champion.
“It wasn’t just like he got caught in the first, like Michael Spinks against Mike Tyson, it was a breakdown, round after round.
“But there’s always going to be excuses from people when they don’t live up to their expectations”
