Fury fighting behind closed doors for charity this week

The Island's most well-known boxer says he's raised more than $250,000 for charity in ticket sales for a fight in Thailand.

His bout with Mariusz Wach this Friday, July 24 will take place behind closed doors in a Pattaya kickboxing stadium, and won't be broadcast on TV.

Instead, only 1,500 VIPs are expected to attend and the proceeds will go to a local Thai children's charity.

It's being considered a warm-up fight for Fury, ahead of his long-awaited clash with fellow Briton Anthony Joshua later this year.
