Tyson Fury became a father for the sixth time on Sunday. He shared regular updates about his newborn’s health on social media. That said, the newborn baby appears to be free from medical complications now. However, her arrival in this world wasn’t a comfortable one.

Following her birth, Athena had to take intensive care in the ICU and was separated from her mother for a long time. It even urged Tyson Fury to ask for his fans’ well wishes all over the Internet. Meanwhile, Tyson Fury’s father, John Fury, has revealed some insights that might shock several of those fans.

While Athena had a hard time coming into this world, John Fury clarified that she had passed away for almost three minutes. Reports further suggest that the medical team was swift enough to revive Tyson Fury’s daughter. In a chat with BT Sport, John Fury shed light on the whole situation and expressed his emotions.

He said, “It’s been a bit of a white knuckle ride, we’ve had a lot to deal with…We thought at one stage we were going to lose her. But it’s all been good due to the professionalism of the doctors and the surgeons. Whoever works there is an amazing person and we’re so grateful to have them.”

Nevertheless, the situation appears to be under control and Tyson Fury’s family seems healthy and fine. Hence, ‘The Gypsy King’ can now transition his focus to his next boxing bout.

Can Tyson Fury retain his belt?

On October 9, ‘The Gypsy King’ will defend his WBC heavyweight strap against Deontay Wilder in an epic trilogy. Although Tyson Fury was the superior man in the last fight, the current situation might favor ‘The Bronze Bomber’ Wilder to some extent.

As Fury’s team had contracted Covid-19 a few weeks ago, the lingering effects of the medical setback can hamper the British camp in the buildup.

However, Deontay Wilder, who had an uninterrupted camp, appears to be honing himself at the gym. Hence, he will be way ahead in his preparations. Nevertheless, it’s still bizarre to write off Tyson Fury from a boxing scrap, under any condition.
