A sculpture of Tyson Fury made out of drainpipes has been unveiled in Morecambe… and it’s not the best.
Fury is comfortably the most famous person to come out of Morecambe. It’s nice to see that his extraordinary achievements in the sport of boxing are being recognised in his local town.
Unfortunately for the Gypsy King, the sculpture that’s been produced to honour him could not be less lifelike.
Local artist Anthony Padgett has honoured the heavyweight champion of the world by recreating him with drainpipes. Not gold, silver, bronze or stone – chuffing drainpipes.

Fury dethroned Wladimir Klitschko, fell into a deep depression and returned to boxing to have a triumphant trilogy with American hard-hitter Deontay Wilder – and THIS was the best that they could do to show their appreciation in Morecambe.
Something tells us that Fury is not going to be particularly impressed with the sculpture when he visits it down the seafront…
