Tyson Fury is to release a version of the Neil Diamond classic ‘Sweet Caroline’ in order to raise money for a men’s mental health charity Talk Club.
The heavyweight boxing star is known to enjoy a sing song, often serenading the crowd in the ring after fights and occasionally in press conferences too.
Now he’ll be releasing a debut single on November 11 through Warner Music UK’s Eastwest Records. ‘Sweet Caroline’ has been adopted as the England football team’s unofficial anthem in recent years and Fury’s single will coincide with the World Cup campaign, which starts next month.

He said: ‘Sweet Caroline is a record I’ve always loved, and I’m excited to record and release it, and thanks to the folk over at Warner Music, they’ve given me the opportunity to do that, and what better time to release it than around the World Cup!

‘I’m also proud to be partnering with the team at Talk Club who do such amazing work, it’s a great opportunity for me to give something back to Mental Health and hopefully continue to raise awareness for a cause that’s really close to my heart and if it helps England along the way in the World Cup, well that’s an added bonus.’

Fury has struggled with his mental health in the past and the cause is one close to his heart.
Talk Club Co-Founders/Co-CEO’s Ben Akers and Gavin Thorpe said: ‘Suicide is the biggest killer of men under 50 in the UK. Tyson Fury is a champion, in and out of the ring to many of those men.
‘Men see themselves in Tyson, so when he talks (or sings) they listen. So to be partnering with Tyson on something that raises the awareness of Talk Club, and gets men talking and improving their mental fitness, will save lives.’
All of the Warner Music profits and the entirety of Fury’s earnings will be donated to the men’s mental health charity.
