Tyson Fury and his family accused of dodging £82,000 tax bill

British heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury, along with his father John and brother Shane, are facing a new battle, this time with the tax man. Cheshire East Council claims that the Fury family owes £82,000 in council tax for a property next to their £1 million mansion in Styal. Magistrates are expected to issue a legal order demanding payment, and if the three fail to comply, they could face enforcement action.

The Gypsy King in trouble

Tyson Fury, known as The Gypsy King, stands at an impressive 6ft 9in. He is a married father-of-seven and has become one of the most successful boxers in recent years. However, this latest issue with the tax bill has put a dent in his otherwise illustrious career.

The Fury family's ownership

The council tax demand relates to land used for caravans and motorhomes next to the Fury family's mansion. Land Registry papers confirm that Tyson, Shane, and John are the owners of both the property and the land. While John resides at the gated property, Tyson is currently in Morecambe, Lancashire.

Possible consequences

If the Fury family fails to pay the outstanding amount, they could face enforcement action. This could involve a bailiff reclaiming assets from the family. It remains to be seen whether the Furys will attend court or provide a comment on the matter.
