Tyson Fury is facing a massive bill over the use of land at a house he owns in Cheshire.
The world heavyweight boxing champion was named alongside his dad John and his brother Shane in a civil trial brought by Cheshire East Council. Town hall bosses say the trio owe an alleged £82,000 in unpaid council tax over an area of land which was used as a car park.
The land - at the Styal house - was rented for £600 a month to a firm which used it as a car park for holiday makers flying from nearby Manchester Airport.

Speaking at Chester Magistrates Court today, Tyson's father, John, said he thought the case was 'ridiculous', The Mirror reports.
He said he had put his sons on the land registry for the property “some 20 years ago” after "a fight with the wife". But he said neither Tyson, from Morecambe, or his brother had “anything to do with it”. Wearing a green parka and a brown jumper, Mr Fury said: “I’ve come here today to tell you the boys had nothing to do with it, especially Tyson.”
He added: “It is ridiculous, when he (Tyson) is paying millions of pounds of tax a year. He has not lived at that address for 18 years. You can check the council tax in Morecambe.”
He continued: “All I have done is rent a piece of land out. It is just an empty yard.” Mr Fury, from Styal, Cheshire, told the court he was dyslexic and had an advisor who handled his affairs.
He added: “I’m a boxing coach. I’m a boxing trainer. I’ve no knowledge of all this. The only trouble I’ve been in, in my life, was criminal. All this technical stuff, it is not my field.”
