Tyson Fury’s comments on his weight
Speaking on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast in 2018, Tyson opened up about his weight struggles.
He said he began training in 2017. Tyson said during the podcast: “I was eating a lot and drinking a lot. I just stopped all of that.
“My weight was put on through excessive drinking of lager. There are 500 calories in a pint of beer and I would go out and drink 18 of them followed by whisky and vodka, then I’d stop off on the way home and have pizzas and kebabs.”
He added: “Before I was doing a lot of long running and long boxing work, like 12-15 rounds on the pads. While I was trying to lose the weight I was doing shorter, explosive stuff, doing more interval training.
“Diet is the most important thing, you can train like a Trojan warrior but not eat right and take three steps forward and two and a half back.”
