Tyson Fury is a warrior inside and outside the ring. On the surface, one might consider Fury to be the epitome of human athleticism and strength. However, one of his most overlooked capabilities is his mental resilience. After defeating Wladimir Klitschko in 2015, Fury sank into profound depths of depression and despair. As a coping mechanism, Fury consumed alcohol and eventually became a victim of substance abuse which led him to beef up into 300lbs.

However, Fury is a fighter through and through. He battled against his vice and depression by deciding to have a resurgence. In 2018, he made his comeback. His resilience has inspired many in the boxing world. In a recent video posted by him on social media, Tyson shared a profound message for his fans.
