TYSON FURY is dripping with sweat after a sparring session in Ricky Hatton’s gym.
He complains his work-out had been ‘too easy’ — which is probably why he’d ended it by dropping his guard, beating his chest and roaring at his opponent to punch him. Fury is back and the world of boxing is intrigued.
The Gyspy King launches his comeback against Albania’s Sefer Seferi at the Manchester Arena on June 9 after 2½ years out of the ring following a drug ban, bouts of depression and having lost ‘a small person’ in weight.
The last time Fury fought, in Dusseldorf in November 2015, he produced a masterful performance to dethrone Wladimir Klitschko, ending the Ukrainian’s decade of heavyweight division dominance.
But this time, Fury says, he intends to enjoy the sweet science, after the fight game had come to resemble a ‘monotonous’ and ‘sh***y’ business.
And then, perhaps having ruled the world a second time, Fury announces he will spend seven years studying to become a doctor of medicine. When I smile at this idea, I wish I hadn’t.

Fury, all 6ft 9in of him, delivers a look as jarring as an uppercut. Trying to interview this man is probably much like attempting to box him.
He bobs and weaves and ducks and deflects. Then he unleashes the unexpected. He’ll become a doctor.
