"The origin story of the Gypsy King" - Meet the man behind Tyson Fury's iconic suits

Tyson Fury v Dillian Whyte Press Conference

Tyson Fury is currently one of the most talked about boxers in the world. 'The Gypsy King' is also one of the most charismatic figures the sport has ever seen. When it comes to his fashion, Fury does not hold back. His press conference suits are always unique and eccentric. It all started in 2015, just before the press conference for Fury vs. Wladimir Klitschko.

'The Gypsy King' came dressed as Batman and later changed into a two-piece suit. The man behind the suits is Nav Sakimian. In an interview with talkSPORT Boxing, Salimian explained how his work with Fury began:

"The story begins in August 1, 2015 when I get a call from a member of team Fury, and the first question is, do I know who Tyson Fury is? 'Of course,' I respond, 'The Gypsy King'. They said 'Are you aware he's gonna be fighting Wladimir Klitschko?' And I was very excited because I'm following the coverage. Now, I didn't know that I only had less than eighteen hours to get a suit prepared and drive up to Morecambe."

Since then, he has been the man who has tailored all of 'The Gypsy King's iconic press conference looks.
