Tyson Fury back in training ahead of what he is hoping will be a comeback to the sport of boxing in the very near future.

Last week he told fans on social media that he was aiming at a May return.

Although a week on, it’s safe to say that’s probably a little bit too soon considering he has a hearing coming up with UKAD in May which he’ll need to get through first, before been granted a license to professionally box of course.

He’s also admittedly at 25 stone, which isn’t that unusual considering the fact he’s 6’9 and a giant of a man.

But nonetheless, taking that weight off in a healthy, steady manner, while getting back into fight shape is definitely a process.

One that Fury is relishing however – as he tells fans this morning he is back in the gym:

Great Monday morning,
Happy to be back in the gym,
25stone not for long!
Watch me burn it off & get back in shape & smash these bums.?

For all the criticism he gets when it comes to his weight gaining and comments outside the ring, when it comes down to putting in the graft – he can do it as well as any with his no nonsense uncle and trainer Peter Fury.

He and his uncle no doubt will be attacking the task with intensity.
