TYSON FURY takes great delight making shocking remarks and his latest about masturbation was not only distasteful but complete nonsense.
In a recent Los Angeles Times interview, Fury boasted he is masturbating SEVEN times a day to increase his testosterone levels as he prepares for his world heavyweight title rematch with Deontay Wilder next month.

That kind of bragging fits snugly into the category of fake news but it’s amazing the vast number of people prepared to believe him.
The Gypsy King announced with no little pride: “If it gives me an edge on winning the fight, I’m willing to try it. Why not?”
Making provocative statements like that is liable to have adolescent schoolboys sniggering at the back of the classroom.
Tyson has a long history of being fined for sickening sexist and homophobic jibes.
He can’t possibly be accused of insulting anyone this time.
UNSCIENTIFIC THEORY
But my guess is that people of my generation would be more than happy to do without the benefit of knowing his masturbatory habits.
I have a feeling Sir Henry Cooper, and many more British champions of his era, would agree with me.
The effects of masturbation have been debated for years.
Sigmund Freud, the founder of psychoanalysis, observed: “The only shame in masturbation is the shame of not doing it well.”
Doctors in many countries have all reached the same conclusion — that Fury’s unscientific theory about it being beneficial to sportsmen is utterly ridiculous.
If he wants proof he has only to listen to Dr Jamin Brahmbhatt of the University of Florida’s medical college.

Professor Brahmbhatt said: “Masturbating does NOT lead to any major change in your body so you are not going to see a change in the overall testosterone range.”
Though he did warn: “Excessive masturbation is known to mess up the body’s hormonal levels.”
What a relief for Wilder, who can now sleep easy.
The WBC champ must have been worrying himself sick that Fury was putting more than one over on him.
We can only hope between now and February 22, Tyson spares us further revelations on how he’s spending his leisure time in training camp.
But Fury is never short of surprises. He astonished everyone by suddenly parting with Ben Davison, who did such a magnificent job training him for his last five fights.
He’s teamed up with Javan ‘Sugar’ Hill, who learned at the feet of his uncle, the great Manny Steward.
Fury feels with Hill he will have a much better chance of knocking out Wilder.
Perhaps the best advice Hill can give Tyson is to stop being a complete w****r and put his hands to better use by doing extra sparring or pad work.
