Basically I have a low carb diet and train very hard for a long period of time. I do get hungry, but I say do I want look good?
Fury is back to regain the titles he was forced to relinquish over a year ago and has his sights set on a massive showdown with Anthony Joshua.
AJ holds three of the belts Fury once owned, and a meeting between the British rivals could be the biggest event in UK boxing history.
And Fury believes he would have too much craft for Joshua to handle.
Im happy to be back involved in the sport; its almost like Ive got a second career, Fury said.
I have the ability [to beat Joshua], I just have too much movement and natural boxing skill to lose to someone like him.
Im proud of what hes done and hes an inspiration to young people coming through. But everyone knows who the real champion is.
