The ‘Gypsy King’ hasn’t been in a ring since his victory over Deontay Wilder in February. Since then he has been in and out of the headlines; most recently for bizarre accusations made by Wilder.

However, in this time he has also made it a point to show fans he is sticking to the grind. He posted an intense training video of his workout, which showed him go full ‘Beast Mode’.

It is safe to say that the champion is looking in great shape and is staying fit despite not having a fight on the horizon.

The video also shows Fury managing with the equipment he has at his disposal. The pull-up rack is clearly too short for the 6’9” giant.

However, he said, “A bit small but we make do.” Just when fans thought he could not get any fitter, the ‘Gypsy King’ seemed to surprise everyone.

Who is Tyson Fury training for?

The Englishman was supposed to fight on December 5 against Agit Kabayel. However, things fell through and now he will only fight next year. His next opponent is yet to be confirmed; however, the Anthony Joshua rumors just don’t seem to go away. Eddie Hearn has confirmed that they want to make the Fury fight happen next. However, they are not willing to wait past next June.

This means that Tyson Fury will have to fight in early 2021 in order to be able to recover and prepare for the Anthony Joshua fight. We cannot see him fighting ‘AJ’ after 18 months out of the ring. So with Fury staying in shape and sticking to his grind, maybe we can expect a fight announcement for the champ sooner rather than later.
