Tyson Fury goes from outspoken rants to prolific social media salesman

Tyson Fury has deleted his entire catalog of Instagram posts as the heavyweight money-making machine continues to expand his brand.

The undefeated WBC ruler was once the most notorious in the boxing world due to his plethora of controversial posts. He regularly got himself into trouble.

These days, the lineal champion is far more known for his weight-loss programs and best-selling books.

Out of the six Instagram posts that Fury kept, ‘The Gypsy King’ sells some product in five of them. A testament to how far he’s grown.

TYSON FURY – THE BRAND

EXHIBIT A

Merchandising. Fury recently launched a series of jackets, bobble hats, and robes as part of a whole range of ‘Gypsy King’ merch.

“New jacket alert. I’ve got to say I saved it till the New Year of 2021. The best yet.

“A limited-edition and limited number available. Get yours now,” the two-time king said.
