A few months back, boxing stalwart Tyson Fury teased his initiation into the UFC and desired to train with the 2-divisional champion Conor McGregor. If that’s not enough, he has now teased his wife, Paris Fury, to step up to the MMA promotion.

While we have always seen the WBC Heavyweight Champion showcase his training clips, this time his wife stepped up for the role. In the new clip, Paris Fury was seen hitting on the punching bag, while her husband Tyson Fury encouraged her.

Considering that Paris has no intentions of going to the UFC, she is still an inspiration for mothers and wives, all over the world.
