The Gypsy King is never hesitant about breaking out into song and American Pie has been a favourite since his return to boxing in 2018.

After his first fight against Deontay Wilder in December of that year, which ended in a draw, Fury celebrated his performance by singing McLean's song.

The heavyweight world champion has previous experience dueting with a singer too, appearing on Robbie William’s song Bad Sharon in 2019

In 2019 Fury sang American Pie twice more - at a Nordoff Robbins charity event and during a Q&A style event in Glasgow.

Naturally, the Brit also sung American Pie when he reclaimed the world title by beating Wilder in 2020.

His duet with McLean will air on BT Sport and it is set to be shown live at Wembley ahead of his fight against Dillian Whyte.

The duet ties in with Fury's homecoming - with the April 23 bout set to be his first on English soil since June 2018.

McLean is also celebrating the 50th anniversary of the song and is set to tour the UK and Europe from September, though it is not known whether Fury will feature.

By September Fury could be busy preparing for another fight after taking on Whyte.

The Gypsy King is a heavy favourite to defend his belt and he could eye Oleksandr Usyk or Anthony Joshua next, depending on who wins the rematch.

Eddie Hearn revealed their second fight has been agreed and is set to take place in July at an unconfirmed location.
