'Damn, she hot' - Tyson Fury says seeing ex-Victoria's Secret model was the only time he has been st

Tyson Fury is not usually one to be intimidated or shy, but he couldn't help it when he met Adriana Lima.

The WBC heavyweight champion has interacted with countless celebrities in his time, but none of them left him starstruck quite like former Victoria's Secret model Lima.

Speaking to TNT Sports, Fury revealed: "I was starstruck once, I was in an airport in Malaga and Adriana Lima came past me, the Victoria Secret model.

"I was like, 'Damn, she hot'.

"And I wanted a picture, but I wouldn't do it because I know how it feels and it's horrible. It was a few years ago in 2019."

Fury will have to hope that Lima isn't at ringside to distract him during his upcoming clash with Francis Ngannou on Saturday night in Saudi Arabia that will undoubtedly have a star-studded crowd.

For starters, Mike Tyson, the former undisputed heavyweight champion and the man after which Fury is named, will be in the opposite corner as Ngannou's trainer.

And the last time a fight took place in Saudi Arabia, between Fury's younger brother Tommy Fury and Jake Paul, Cristiano Ronaldo was in attendance, due to the fact that he now plays his football out there for Al Nassr.

So, for such a big event, Fury has been taking his training extremely seriously, as he told Derek Chisora in a recent interview: "I always give every single person I ever fight 100 per cent.

"I've been training, by the time the fight comes around, for 12 weeks.
