When you party in Vegas, it’s always fun. When you party in Vegas with Tyson Fury, it’s even more fun.
I managed to get into Tyson’s after-fight pool party at Wet Republic on Sunday, which is part of the MGM Grand complex and of course everyone was in a great mood. The music was blaring, the sun was shining (it is Vegas after all) and there was singing and dancing.
I was poolside, having a couple of drinks with some colleagues when I was invited up to Tyson’s cabana to have a shot of vodka with the champ. I was taking a group picture of his team and family and then out of nowhere, I had my camera taken off of me by camp organiser Timmy and was thrown into the pool.

As I said, it’s all fun in Vegas! And you can’t get a bigger celebration than Tyson’s victory. I was pulled out of the pool by one of his team members and Tyson handed me a beer laughing.
Then his brother Tommy handed me another shot of vodka, while Tyson went back to partying and dancing with his wife Paris.
It was a great, if soggy, day!
