Tyson Fury has been seen in great form ahead of his blockbuster clash with Oleksandr Usyk.
The Gypsy King will face his Ukrainian opponent in Saudi Arabia on February 17, after the bout was originally scheduled for December 23.
However, the delay was enforced after Fury suffered an injury following his victory over Francis Ngannou in late October.
Fury is currently training ahead of his bout with Usyk, knowing that a victory would cement his place as one of the best heavyweight boxers of all time.

And Fury is now seen to be in good shape ahead of the fight.
While many felt he looked too slow and lethargic during the victory over Ngannou, his own father admitted he had witnessed a ‘degradation’ in his son.
But a photo uploaded by Thomas Carty shows Fury looking leaner than ever.

Fury’s physique has often been discussed, with the 35-year-old Fury having described himself as ‘fat’ in the past.
“I have become fat now,” he said recently.
“I was fat as a child and I will be fat even on my death bed. We are all fat.
“Hughie is fat, Shane is fat, my dad is fat, and even my mom is fat.
“I hope she doesn’t see it. But, we’re a rough family.”
However, Fury has previously expressed his belief that his ‘love handles’ give him an edge over the rest of the competition.
Britton said, “I really accept being fat because my love separates me from the rest of the world, like never before in history.”
“There has never been anyone like me and never will be.
“That’s what makes me so tough and that’s what makes me, me.
“If you said to me, ‘Right Tyson, we’ll give you a chance to get rid of your body fat, and we’ll give you a perfect six-pack,’ I wouldn’t take it because that’s not me.”
