Like many of us, sneakers are essential to our everyday wardrobe and that is the case for boxing heavyweight and lineal champion Tyson Fury.

As a buildup for tomorrow's highly anticipated rematch between boxing heavyweights Fury and WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder, the Gypsy King appeared as the latest guest on GQ's "My Essentials" series where he shared his top 10 travel essentials including a pair of Christian Louboutin sneakers. While talking about his shoes, he recalled a heart-warming moment of him giving away his shoes to a homeless man after purchasing them the day before. Check out the video in its entirety below.

"One time, I was in L.A. and I saw a homeless guy walking around with no shoes on and the day before, I bought a $1,000 pair of Christian Louboutin trainers, says Fury. "I saw him walking with no shoes on so I chased after him and I gave him my shoes. I walked home and my feet were bruised, but It was definitely worth it, because I had plenty more shoes at home, and the guy didn't have any."

Both boxers have remained undefeated throughout their fighting careers with Wilder's record currently standing at 42-0-1 including 41 knockouts and Fury's 29-0-1 record, 20 of which came by way of knockout. Both heavyweights will square off tomorrow at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas at 9 p.m. ET on ESPN+ and on FOX PPV.
