Tyson Fury, the two-time world heavyweight champion, is not a man anyone would want to challenge. The almost 7-foot-tall Brit towers over most people he comes across on a daily basis. However, despite his daunting physique and equally frightening resume, the Brit has been challenged for an unexpected fight by the unlikeliest opponent.

The opponent is Red Bull’s boss, Christian Horner’s wife, and former member of the Spice Girls Geri Halliwell. Geri Halliwell or Ginger Spice, as her fans liked to call her, rose to stardom with the all-female band. The Spice Girls came together in 1994 and went on to become the best-selling girl group in music history.

Geri Halliwell has since left that life behind and features in various tv shows/movies from time to time. However, little did we know, the British singer has been preparing in the shadows. The wife of the Red Bull boss is preparing for the fight for her life against Tyson Fury.

In a story posted on Geri Halliwell’s Instagram, the singer is sparring next to her Christmas decorations. To be fair, Halliwell does not look like she put on the gloves to throw a few punches for the first time as well. Horner’s wife has clearly been taking boxing lessons.

That is probably why she felt confident enough to call for the wrath of Fury through her Instagram. She wrote, “Are you ready? @tysonfury” on her Instagram story.

Maybe a little mismatched, but it will be the fight of the century. Whoever can, please make it happen!

If this fight happens, we wonder if Max Verstappen will side with his team’s boss or return the favor and side with Fury.

However, Tyson Fury backed Verstappen instead of his countrymen amidst the media backlash. He said, “And how Max [Verstappen] is being made out to be a bit of a bad boy in the media. I know how it feels to be trapped horribly by the media. So you know, give him a bit of a break.”
