Tyson Fury’s boxing career has been anything other than ordinary. An unbeaten world champion by the age of 27, he seemed prepared to reign heavyweight boxing for years to come after beating Wladimir Klitschko in Dusseldorf, Germany. Then it all came crashing down. Depression, substance abuse, and a lack of motivation saw his weight skyrocket up to 330 lbs. Fury wouldn’t compete again for nearly three years.
And then the specter of performance enhancing drugs threatened to undercut his sporting accomplishments as well. In June of 2016, the UK Anti-Doping (UKAD) agency reported that Fury had failed a drug test for the steroid nandrolone back in February of 2015.
