TYSON FURY laughed off worries over his drunken fall session.
The 35-year-old overcame May 18’s undisputed defeat to Ukrainian genius Oleksandr Usyk with a good tipple at his Nowhere bar in Morecambe.

And when it was time to go, the former WBC heavyweight champion lost his balance and fell to the deck – just like in the ninth round in Saudi Arabia against the 37-year-old Ukrainian star.
Fans well aware of his past battles with addiction and mental health issues were quick to share their concerns on social media.
But the 6-foot-7 Gypsy King assured his people he suffered nothing more than a brief, sweaty hangover.
“I have lived my life very simply,” he told his friends. Furocity bebe talks about his recovery.
“I got irritated about two weeks ago and fell on my face but didn’t do any damage, as you can see I’m still pretty!
“Also, I receive a lot of messages and calls from people asking me if I’m ok.
“I just had a drunken night and suddenly everyone thinks you’re going to jump in front of a train.
“Maybe because of my past history, people are worried.”

Despite earning around £300 million from his boxing career alone – minus the Netflix shows, book deals and property portfolio – Fury prefers a working-class life, far from the glitz and glamor of world heavyweight boxing.
And his time of rest and recovery – before returning to camp for the rematch on December 21st – has been a prime example that his humble roots still stand him in good stead.
Fury said: “I was just relaxing, actually.
“I’ve probably been training five times a week.
“I went on a caravan with the children, three days in one place and three days in another.
“I just spent time with my dad, my brothers, my wife and my kids.
“I thought it was my time, but it wasn’t God’s plan for me to win, otherwise I would have made the decision.
“But it didn’t affect me in any way, I lost a split decision.
“I’d be doing the same shit anyway, undisputed champion or not.
“I’d still be picking up dog shit, dropping the kids off at school, running around and drinking beers until I drop, I don’t really do much else.”

You are not alone
EVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicide
It does not discriminate, affecting the lives of people in all corners of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality TV stars and football players.
It is the biggest cause of death for people under 35, deadlier than cancer and car accidents.
And men are three times more likely to take their own lives than women.
Yet it is rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and pay attention, now.
That’s why The Sun launched the You’re Not Alone campaign.
The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our part to help save lives.
Let’s all promise to ask for help when we need it and listen to others… You are not alone.
If you, or someone you know, needs help dealing with mental health issues, the following organizations will provide support:
