FORMER British boxing champion Ryan Rhodes jumped to his daughter’s defence after rumours circulated about her and Tommy Fury.
Since Molly-Mae and Tommy Fury split, speculation began to circulate about the paternity of Ryan Rhode’s grandchild.
Who is Ryan Rhodes?
Ryan Rhodes is a British former professional boxer.
Born November 20, 1976 Rhodes took up boxing at a young age, training at Brendan Ingle’s gym in the Wincobank district of Sheffield.
At the age of eleven Rhodes had his first amateur fight.
By the age of 20, he defeated Sheffield boxer Paul “Silky” Jones that made him the youngest post-war holder of the super-welter British title.
He went on to win the belt outright in a record time of 90 days.
Rhodes held the British super welterweight title twice, in 1996 and in 2008.
He also held the EBU European super welterweight title from 2009 to 2010.
After gaining an impressive total of 46 wins and just 6 loses throughout his boxing career, Rhodes announced his retirement on 4 September 2012.
The boxer is married to Danielle Rhodes for 22-years.
The couple have two daughters, Lissie and Ellie.
The former boxing campion is now a professional boxing coach and manager and is known to have links to the Fury family.
He is head coach at Box Southpaw, and is friends with boxer Tommy Fury‘s dad, John. He has previously been pictured with Tyson Fury.
How is Ryan Rhodes related to Lissie?
Lissie Olivia Rhodes is the daughter of Ryan Rhodes.
Her Instagram gained over 2,000 new followers overnight after Lissie made her page public to quash growing speculation, denying claims that Tommy Fury was the father of her newborn child.
These speculations come after former Love Island couple Molly-Mae and Tommy Fury ended their five year relationship with rumours of infidelity.
It’s thought that Lissie and Tommy met in Dubai through their mutual family connections.
