A ‘monster’ who pretended to be the cousin of boxing champion Tyson Fury in an effort to seduce and rape women has been jailed for 27 years.

David Overton, 31, was convicted of 25 offences, several involving sex crimes, after he reinvented himself as ‘Davy Fury,’ an up-and-coming heavyweight boxer.

Overton began his violent affairs with three victims after he ditched his previous fake persona as a multi-millionaire wheeler-dealer inspired by the Leonardo Di Caprio’s character in the film Wolf of Wall Street.

The latest victims to fall under Overton’s spell were initially besotted with him but he began controlling their lives before using his bulk and menace to force himself on them on repeated occasions, a court has heard.

Overton – who is also known as David Fury-Walsh – repeatedly raped three women and subjected them to campaigns of horrific abuse after portraying himself as a ‘caring and generous man’.

He controlled one victim’s contact with friends, took her money and even made her eat faeces and film herself drinking urine after subjecting her to sadistic sex ordeals. 

Another victim was raped at a hotel following a charity function whilst the third was forced to have intercourse with Overton after he head-butted her during an assault.

Police said he controlled the women’s finances, taking out loans in their names and manipulating them into handing over their savings on the promise that there would be a big return, which never emerged. 

In a statement one of the victims, a successful businesswoman told Chester Crown Court: ‘Initially David saw himself as a character inspired by the Wolf of Wall Street but then he created this new Fury character.

‘What this man put me through is by far the worst thing I have ever experienced. I was used for my money so he could carry out some sick twisted fantasy.

‘The bruises may fade but the psychological cars never will. Even when I sleep he still towers over me, all 6’5″ of him.’

He would then violently assault them if they didn’t comply with his wishes and on two occasions he even made victims eat their own faeces

She claimed that Overton was a ‘monster in size and nature’ who has left her suffering flashbacks. She said the abuse – and its lasting impacts – was so bad that ‘sometimes I wish he did kill me.’

‘This man is no Tyson Fury – he has no regard for any human or animal. His next victim may not be so lucky,’ she said.

Another victim shared how she had to change her hairstyle so her fringe would ‘cover the permanent forehead scar that David gave me.’

‘I used to be such an extrovert but now I am the complete opposite,’ the victim said. 

The third woman, a police worker said in a statement: ‘I can’t count on my fingers the number if times he threatened to shoot men, my family and friends. 

‘I was so scared when he said that he was going to need a body bag and a cleanup crew to come to my address.’

She told the court that Overton would punch, kick and shout at her, adding that she would ‘get told off for flinching’ during the apparent assaults.

The woman also claimed that her dog was ‘affected’ by Overton’s acts of violence and ‘will need training to correct his behaviour.’

Police began to investigate the thug, who is formerly of Brook Street, Macclesfield, after a report he had raped and assaulted a woman in September last year

Overton (pictured) claimed he was the boxing champion’s cousin so he could woo women, the court was told. He assumed the identity of David Fury-Walsh after he used steroids to bulk up in a gym, got himself a face tattoo, shaved his head and dyed his ginger beard black

The investigation into Overton began in September 2021 when one of the victims went to Cheshire Police.

He was arrested within hours of the report, and while he was in custody two other women became aware of his arrest and built up the courage to report that they were also victims of his abusive and controlling behaviour.

Overton denied all the charges was found guilty by a jury following a four-week trial at Chester Crown Court.

He was convicted of 25 offences including 13 counts of rape, four counts of sexual assault, three counts of controlling and coercive behaviour, three counts of actual bodily harm, one count of sexual touching and possession of a knife. 

Following his release from jail he will be on licence until 2056. 

The court heard he had 13 previous dishonesty offences on his record under nine different aliases.

Sentencing Judge Michael Leeming told him: ‘All three women allowed you into their lives and in return you treated them with sustained violence and abuse. You youself admitted you were a control freak – but insisted that you always respected women.

‘However these were not respectful actions and in your words, these women were no match for you. The trust, confidence and faith in human nature these victims once had would have not been damaged were it not for your relationships with them.

‘You do show clear tropes of narcissism and are a compulsive liar. You pose a significant risk of harm to women and any future women you have relationships with.’

Overton claimed he was the boxing champion’s cousin so he could woo women, the court was told.

He assumed the identity of David Fury-Walsh after he used steroids to bulk up in a gym, got himself a face tattoo, shaved his head and dyed his ginger beard black.

As part of his trumped up claims to be a relative of Fury, Overton popped up on social media interviews on boxing blogs in which he talked of ‘working for his dream.’

One detailed how he had ‘worked from the age of 13 to provide for his siblings then gone down the wrong path and prison,’ before embarking on the ‘road to recovery and with glory in his sights.’

He also told his victims he hailed from a tough travelling community in Salford, Greater Manchester and once worked as an enforcer for a drugs gang. 

Overton claimed he was vowing to go straight after a three-year stretch in prison for handling dirty money, Chester Crown Court heard.

But in reality the six-foot-five-inches tall conman grew up in a council house in Congleton, Cheshire.

The 31-year-old was found guilty of 13 counts of rape, four counts of sexual assault, three counts of controlling and coercive behaviour, three counts of actual bodily harm, one count of sexual touching and possession of a knife at Chester Crown Court (pictured) on Wednesday, December 14

He underwent his most recent image change after being convicted of fraud following a scheme in which he offered a non-existent £20,000 a year finance job to a gullible young woman in return for a £1,000 investment in his business. 

The conman claimed at the time he was a multi-millionaire tycoon who ran a finance firm MinotaurFX from a head office in Canary Wharf and held a £1.4billion fund. 

Overton’s own mother eventually rubbished his claims about being Fury’s cousin.

David Polglase prosecuting told the trial: ‘He appears to have been engaging and wildly generous to start, but also soon showed various darker traits, and was not honest about his background, including playing on supposed links to Tyson Fury.

‘His behaviour was coercive, controlling, violent and descended into sexual offending. All three victims describe sexual activity based on, at best submission or acquiescence and at worst violence, fear and coercion.

He added: ‘The defendant is a violent and manipulative bully. He is someone who has to be in control of a situation. He is a fantasist. He is a man who wants his own way. 

‘He is a man who does not take ‘no’ for an answer. He has shown that to be that kind of person, with no respect for women, by the three complainants in this case.’

Overton’s lawyer William Staunton said: ‘He is not a psychopath but a troublesome man. He was on steroids at the time and this affected his ability to control his emotions.’
