Tyson Fury: ‘I’ll be glad when it’s all over – no more Mr Celebrity Boxer’

Fury waves back as he says of his bleak moments: “I’ve learnt to manage it a bit better now. Before I didn’t really understand it. Now I know more and what to do to manage the problem.”are caused by suicide

The fighter half-joked in subsequent years that I was “the first man to see the darkness of Tyson Fury”. But he always acknowledged the depth of turmoil he felt that day and between late 2015 and early 2018, when he retired from boxing and ballooned to 400 pounds while drinking heavily and taking cocaine. Fury had been so depressed he nearly ended his life by driving his car over a bridge at 160mph.

I also know how much Fury loves being in the ring and that, for all its dark and unsettling flaws, there is nothing like boxing. How will he replace the sheer intensity of Saturday night as he and Whyte walk towards each other at the first bell? Fury pauses and then, as is his way, sounds grandly philosophical. “As Julius Caesar said, there’ll always be somebody else to fight. Another battle. There’ll always be somebody.”

Even when we return to the subject Fury is emphatic. “It’s got nowt to do with me, has it? I’ve got my own troubles to look after with six kids and a wife nagging me to death for not being at home to help. I’ve got a man who wants to punch my face in [on Saturday]. Anything else is out of my control.”
