And speaking to The Mirror, the younger brother of WBC heavyweight king Tyson Fury revealed he has gone back to his roots.

The 21-year-old is back at Steve Egan’s gym in Wythenshawe, where he and Tyson started out.

And he is still using Arnie’s Gym in Manchester.

Speaking to The Mirror Fury said: “Tyson boxed at the Egan gym and I boxed for them a few times in the amateurs so we’re taking it back to our grassroots.

“Boxing is my life. All I do is train and get myself on the road running.

“As soon as I got off the plane at Manchester Airport after Love Island, I said that all I wanted to do was box. So we went to see Frank Warren and got the show the road.

“Love Island was great fun, brought me a lot of privileges and earned me money, but boxing outweighs the celebrity life by a mile.

“Dad is training me as always, pushing as hard as he can. He is very old fashioned with Rocky-style training methods.”
