The two-times world heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury is releasing his debut single, a cover of the Neil Diamond classic ‘Sweet Caroline.’ The song will be released in aid of men’s mental health charity Talk Club and was chosen due to its status as a favourite at many UK sporting events, with Fury saying he feels a particular connection to it.
Fury has been a long-time campaigner for mental health awareness and often breaks into song following his victories. He said: “I always wanted to be a singer, even though I’m quite shit at it,” adding “my wife keeps saying fake it till you make it. So I’m the next Tom Jones, I believe.”
