Butterbean wants to box Tyson Fury after knocking out ex-champion’s 60-year-old father in ‘warm up’

Boxing Legend Butterbean continues to add people to his list of potential comeback opponents.

The 58-year-old has already called Jake Paul, Mike Tyson, Brock Lesnar and Eddie Hall.

Now he looks at fighting with a famous father-son duo prior to his first boxing fight since 2013.

Butterbean wants to face John Fury in a 'warming up' before he is confronted with his two -time heavyweight champion son, Tyson Fury.

Butterbean wants to fight anger

The ultimate goal of Butterbean is to test himself against the very best hunters in boxing.

However, he would be willing to have a scrap with Fury's 60-year-old father to show that he can still hit.

“I would first fight against the old man, beat him up, put it pretty well around him,” said Butterbean De Spiegel.

“And then I would like to hit the son pretty bad. I would like to fight Tyson Fury.

'You know, I was offered to fight his father. And it was a while ago.

“I would like to fight him, one of them. But yes, Tyson Fury is the one I really want.

“His father would be an easy fight. That would be a pair-rounder. I would say: 'Go outside and just have fun and get ready for the son. “It would be a warm -up fight.

“I mean, now that I believe in myself, I can do everything. And because I am in such a great form, I know I can achieve my goals.”

Why does Butterbean make a comeback?

Butterbean became worrying up to 500 pounds after he ran away from his martial arts career.

The enormous weight gain limited him to a wheelchair before he completed a dramatic body transformation of 220 pounds.

Now the '300-Fight' veteran wants to return to the ring and prove that you can bounce everything back.

“I want to do another fight to prove people that, anyway, you get, if you believe in yourself as if I believe in myself, you can reach everything,” said Butterbean during an exclusive interview with Bloody Elbow.

“I want to do it this year. Certainly this year.”
