Things, with regards to being in the spotlight appear to have come to a head for the troubled heavyweight champion Tyson Fury.
Hot on the heels of a retraction of his ?I?m retiring? tweet, Fury issued another tweet that suggested he was far from being retired.
But, this morning there are some more startling revelations that could well see Tyson not only stripped of his WBO and WBA heavyweight belts but possibly given a substantial ban.
In an interview with the magazine Rolling Stone, Tyson has come clean about the way he?s been living his life for the past few months and what the self-proclaimed Gypsy King has to say is indicative of how his problems have taken over his life.
Talking about his lifestyle, Tyson is quoted as having remarked,
‘I’ve been out drinking, Monday to Friday to Sunday, and taking cocaine.
Continuing, Tyson in describing his mental state, reveals,
‘I can’t deal with it and the only thing that helps me is when I get drunk out of my mind.
‘They say I’ve got a version of bipolar. I’m a manic depressive.
I just hope someone kills me before I kill myself.?
And as for an example of the pressure he?s been under since winning the heavyweight titles off of Wladimir Klitschko, last November, Tyson further added,
‘I’m the heavyweight champion of the world and I’ve been told, ‘Sorry mate, you can’t come in, no travellers allowed’.
‘I used to love boxing when I was a kid. I hate boxing now.’
However, Tyson was quick to confirm he had never taken any performance enhancing drugs and was having treatment for his depression.
We?re positive Tyson Fury will be back but when is the big question.
