Tyson Fury- Let’s fight the virus together

“I hope everyone is staying safe and indoors” he urged people to do all they can which is to stay indoors and help fight the virus. “Let’s fight it together as a nation, a family, a team. Fury says he has taken prime Minister Boris Johnson’s words seriously. This even led to him asking someone to bring to him as he cannot go to the gym for a while now. 

“I’m going to keep fit and post videos of myself daily to keep me going and all of you going,” says Fury.

 Tyson Fury seems to be going full steam ahead and hs delighted fans with videos that show him leisurely working out. We also get a glimpse into his family life. In another video, he is seen using his wife Paris as a weight. He then proceeds to do ten squats. “While you’re in you gotta make easy weights.” 

Fury sees to be in high spirits here as he begins spot jogging before switching to weights. Amid this Fury’s camera falls to the ground. It is a bit like the early days of this, but one certainly hopes Fury will become a pro at this over the course of the self-isolation period.

‘The Gypsy King’ shows followers another side of himself

Fury takes us to his outdoor area where we see the Gypsy King’s son imitate his father. He proceeds to throw a toy onto the paver blocks. Fury introduces followers to his dog, who he proclaims, “the real heavyweight champion of the world.” He seems to even be making use of the quarantine to catch up with his neighbors albeit from a distance. 

These videos provide us regular glimpses into the lives of world-renowned athletes. And as Fury keeps yelling in one video, we get to see how normal they are. They have workouts that evolve into impromptu dance routines in which the entire family takes part. There were no camera bloopers this time around which shows us that Tyson fury has sorted that part of the live videos out quite well.

Well normal people who have the means to get a gym delivered to them amidst a quarantine. But as Fury says in one of his videos, without a gym..I’m finished.” Fans will certainly not want an overweight Fury once self-isolation ends.
