    At least he acknowledges he has mental health issues and is trying to do something about it. Some people won't do what's necessary to get better, whether it's denial or just being oblivious.

    Look at Charlie Zelenoff.

    I wish the guy would see a psychologist and get his life back on track. He could still have a few good years of boxing left.

    I dunno, back in the day I knew loads of people who took loads coke, like all the time, none of their voices got like that. Certainly not for a week nevermind a year.

    I've strained my voice a few times, after a heavy night, shouting too loudly because of loud music, but that should pass after a day or two.

    You would have thought whatever it is he'd have a diagnosis from a doctor by now, so it is a bit baffling.

    Hopefully Tyson will get through this getting back in the gym will help just training and messing around sparing. certainly helped me when I've been down in the past.having too much time your hands isn't great. starting training will help and hopefully might mean he gets back in the ring sometime.Tyson is only a baby in HW terms I think he will be back but not for a while.

    Yeah Briggs was in a bad way. Briggs was a lot older than Fury is when he got depressed and ballooned. If Briggs can do it past 40 then Tyson can muster something at his age. The inspiration is there for him (minus the roids). Time is ticking.

    Personally though I think he's done. Especially at the top level, where he overachieved at the only time he fought there.

    Fury needs a better support network. I don't think his trainer or manager have a clue what he's going through and don't seem to be trying to find out. just saying "he'll definitely fight again" doesn't make it so.

    He doesn't feel bad for any of us when we are depressed and going through problems.

    If you live in the public eye and make a living from doing so, you live with people developing opinions of you. He talked mad **** and made a lot of derogatory statements toward a lot of demographics. Tyson Fury is a POS. No need to beat around the bush.
