In his latest session, the newly crowned WBC champion reminded his fans to stay hydrated, by any means possible.
He then admitted to drinking lager during his own sessions, probably referring to his amateur days.
Fury said: “Take some fluids on board, take some water, whatever you’ve got.
“Yeah, why I say, ‘Whatever you’ve got’ is because after being around boxing my whole life I’ve seen people drinking some weird stuff during training.
“Example, full fat coke. Example, Red Bull, milkshake.
“I’ve even seen someone drinking a can of Foster’s in between rounds. Mention no names – Tyson Fury.
“Ah, the good old days, eh?”
Fury has remained in phenomenal shape since dethroning Deontay Wilder of the WBC title, which he did under a new trainer and nutritionist.
George Lockhart, who helped Conor McGregor during the UFC star’s drastic weight cuts, fed the Gypsy King a diet of six meals a day including wholesome curries and pork loin.

The heavyweight was even forced to ditch his beloved Diet Coke, but his strict health plan paid off as he dominated Wilder before stopping him in seven rounds.
It completed a remarkable comeback for Fury, who ballooned up to 28st during the height off his depression having vacated the belts he won against Wladimir Klitschko in 2015 following a battle with depression.
But the 6ft 9in unbeaten champion is once again world champion and continues to spread motivational messages to his legion of fans having transitioned from pantomime villain to heavyweight hero.
