鈥楽uicidal鈥 Fury says used cocaine
Print Edition
TROUBLED world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has admitted taking large amounts of cocaine, saying he is also suicidal and that “I hope someone kills me before I kill myself.”
Following the Briton’s latest comments, the British Boxing Board of Control said yesterday it would consider his case, and a possible decision to withdraw his licence to box, at an already scheduled October 12 meeting.
The 28-year-old Fury, who has twice this year abruptly cancelled rematches with Wladimir Klitschko to defend his World Boxing Association and World Boxing Organization heavyweight belts, tweeted on Monday that he had retired, only to make a U-turn just hours later.
Last week reports emerged that Fury had failed a drug test for cocaine and he confirmed for the first time, to Rolling Stone magazine, that he had taken the class A drug as a way of self-medicating for severe depression.
“Listen, I’ve done a lot of things in my life. I’ve done lots of cocaine. Lots of it,” Fury told the magazine.
“I’ve not been training. I’ve been going through depression. I just don’t want to live any more, if you know what I’m saying. I’ve had total enough of it. So cocaine is a little minor thing compared to not wanting to live any more.”
He added: “I don’t know if I’m going to see the year out, to be honest...
“They say I’ve got a version of bipolar. I’m a manic depressive. I just hope someone kills me before I kill myself.”
