Their feud reached a boiling point earlier this year at the launch press conference for Tyson’s comeback fight against Arslanbek Makhmudov.<\/p>\n
Froch, 48, was on punditry duties with Netflix when Fury Sr, 61, angrily confronted the Hall of Famer<\/a>, imploring him to meet him in the ring.<\/p>\n ‘The Cobra’ obliged, and an offer was made by Misfits Boxing to stage the fight, which Fury Sr claims was in the region of \u00a31million. <\/p>\n Ultimately, it all came to nothing as the head of the Fury clan priced himself out of negotiations. <\/p>\n READ MORE ON BOXING Why did John Fury reject a fight with Carl Froch?<\/p>\n “I asked them for \u00a32.5million sterling, they didn’t come back to me,” Fury Sr told Pro Boxing Fans. <\/p>\n “They offered me a million quid. <\/p>\n “By the time I pay tax and everybody else, it’s not enough.<\/p>\n “I don’t need money.
