After a near three-year absence from boxing, Tyson Fury returned to the ring in emphatic fashion, finishing Sefer Seferi in the fourth round in front of a hometown crowd at the Manchester Arena.
Fury has since set his sights on re-climbing the ladder of the heavyweight division, not shying away from calling out Deontay Wilder and fellow Brit Anthony Joshua - who look set to fight it out in a championship unification bout.
Fury is understood to have shed eight stone in preparation for his fight against Seferi and looks to lose more to once again reach peak fitness.
In his most recent column, promoter for Fury's recent matchup Frank Warren hails the 29-year-old for his efforts, both as an in-ring competitor as well as a box-office draw.
He said: "He deserves huge applause and support for getting to where he currently is in a relatively short space of time and he got that from a bumper 15,000-plus crowd at the Manchester Arena on Saturday who knew what they were watching.
"Saturday wasn’t about getting Tyson back in the heavyweight mix, it was about getting him back in the game. He has shed more than eight stone and still has a bit more to lose, so his training was tailored more around weight loss than actually preparing for a fight."
However, one major criticism of Fury and the opponent he chose for his comeback is the discrepancies in size between the two.
Fury had weighed in nearly five stone heavier than Seferi ahead of the fight, as well as being considerably taller.
Addressing these criticisms, Warren continued: "The fight against Seferi was no more than a means to an end and this is how you bring people back after such a long exile and the loss of so much weight.
"The physical differences between Tyson and Seferi were immaterial. We did not make the fight based upon height or weight, we simply picked someone who we believed could give Tyson some valuable time under the lights in the ring."
Later on in the column, Warren became more targeted in his attacks. When criticising the coverage of the fight the following day, Frank takes direct jabs at The Sun.
He said: "The newspaper treated its readers to its usual blinkered coverage of any event not broadcast by Sky and did its utmost to ridicule the return of Tyson before a punch was even thrown."
Of course, media mogul Rupert Murdoch owns both the Sun and Sky, while the Fury/Seferi bout was broadcasted on BT Sport.
Warren then goes on to criticise a Sun reporter and the way they conducted themselves at the weigh-in.
He continued: "I emphasised to the reporter at the weigh-in – when he kept banging on about Tyson’s pants being on the small side – that he wore them on behalf of Oddballs, who campaign and raise awareness of testicular cancer.
"They were obviously a bit too tight for him, which highlighted a bit of surplus flesh around his lower back, and this has now developed into another bulls**t story by the Sun."
