TYSON FURY has shared a never-before-seen picture from before his incredible ten-stone weight loss – as he tells his followers: “Anything is possible”.
The British boxer, 31, shared a snap at himself “over 400lb” – around 28 stone – as his weight ballooned during his time away from the ring.

In the past, Fury has made no secret of his battles with eating and drinking – as well as struggling with substance abuse and depression.
But now he’s reminded fans they can achieve their dreams after posting a blurry snap of himself to his Instagram.
He captioned the post: “When someone says you can’t do something, look at this and remember anything is possible. This is me at over 400lb.”
Since that photo was taken, Fury has shed ten stone and got back in the ring – as he drew with American star Deontay Wilder in December 2018.
The Gypsy King has since beaten Tom Schwarz and Otto Wallin as he prepares for a rematch with Wilder next month in the second fight of their trilogy.
And fans are hopeful he can continue his fairytale return to boxing after his latest post.
“FIGHT TO BE HAPPY”
One wrote: “You’re an inspiration for people with mental health issues, showing that anything possible.
“Yes, money does help, but so does self worth and determination. Keep on doing what your doing, you have been given a purpose for others as well as yourself.
Another said: “Yes. Can’t wait for you to smash that dosser. You’ve got support from people you’ve helped with your motivation and comeback.
“You’ve helped a lot of people, myself included. Fight to be happy.”
A third added: “Absolutely amazing what you have achieved…”
Fury has often been seen as a controversial figure for his outspoken comments – but he recently opened up to talkSPORT about how it’s all an act.

Fury revealed: “There have always been two characters to Tyson Fury – there’s Tyson Fury, the man, and there’s the Gypsy King, the entertainer. It’s two totally different people.
“When I’m in the ring doing my stuff and entertaining, the Gypsy King comes out and he thrives.
“But while I’m at home doing day-to-day stuff and I’m just a normal person, a husband, a father, a son, then Tyson Fury, the man, is where I want to be.”
Tyson Fury earned just £2.3m from Deontay Wilder purse… but his net worth will soar to over £100m this year
