Tyson Fury is attacking 2022 with grueling training sessions around keeping Morecambe Bay in red-hot form.
The 33-year-old Gypsy King only managed one fight in 2021, but it was the coveted trilogy victory over Deontay Wilder and he is hungry for more action in the coming 12 months.

So the undefeated 6ft 9in WBC champion is pounding his local streets with training partner and fellow heavyweight Joe Parker to melt any Christmas pounds.
Following his incredible 11th KO of the American in Las Vegas, Fury went on a whistlestop tour of the UK, thrilling fans city-by-city with stories of a three-fight rivalry.
And he enjoyed a trip to New York where he came face-to-face with dream rival and WBA, IBF and WBO champion Oleksandr Usyk, and celebrated promoter Bob Arum’s 90th birthday.
But he has now parked his jet setting for serious gym sessions and road runs in just 2 degrees on an icy ocean front.
And Parker is the perfect partner as he scored a points win over Derek Chisora on 18 December and can’t return to his family home in New Zealand due to travel restrictions so is sweating it out with his friend.
The former WBO king believes Fury to be the hardest-working fighter ever.

But he confirmed that he can still party with the best when he is away from training camp.
He added: “Tyson is a different animal altogether.
“I’ve trained with him and I know the levels. Of all the guys I’ve seen and trained with, he’s here.
“After the Vegas fight, we let loose — Tyson and I — it was the best of times. We went to some club, he got on stage, he was crazy.
“Then we came back to Morecambe, let loose again and then the camp started.
“He doesn’t move around in the camp. We don’t roam around in the camp. But it’s fun when we have fun. And that’s fun at best.”
