Pictures have emerged of Tyson Fury as a Celtic fan.
The so-called ‘Gypsy King’ regained the World Heavyweight belt in Las Vegas with a seventh round knock out of Deontay Wilder in front of a massive worldwide pay-per-view audience.
Fury was born in Manchester to an Irish Traveller family in 1988 with his routes traced back to Galway and Belfast. As an amateur he boxed for Ireland and England. The pictures in Celtic gear look about 10 years old.

The new champion dominated the fight from the early moments, making full use of his powerful 18 stone 4 frame.
Fury has been through a number of highs and lows throughout his life, at one stage he was weighing 31 stone and dealing with depression.
So far his only footballing allegiance has been with Manchester United but after regaining the World Heavyweight belt he’ll be assured of a hero’s welcome if he decides to drop in on Celtic Park.
