He might be a world famous boxer, but he still needs to get rid of his rubbish. Tyson Fury has just clinched millions after his fight with Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia, which he lost on points - but he had made a promise to get back to normal.

And he's done that - big time. Fury has been spotted taking a trip to the local tip, fulfilling his promise of spending time with his family and carrying out everyday tasks following his first career defeat on Saturday.

The 35-year-old was seen leaving his Morecambe mansion, rubbish in hand, dressed in a navy tracksuit, white cap and sunglasses - likely to cover his bruised face and broken nose from the fight. Fury returned home on a £34million private jet after the bout in Riyadh, where he narrowly avoided a knockout in the ninth round.

Despite believing he had won the fight on points, the split decision victory went to Ukrainian Usyk. In a post-fight interview, Fury stated: "We punched f*** out of each other for 12 rounds. I'm going to go home, eat some food, drink some beers, have some family time, walk the dog, go to the tip."

He added: "Me and Frank Warren will discuss the future. If there's going to be another fight - I think they're talking about October - then we'll rock and roll," reports the Mirror. His wife Paris, 34, who couldn't fly to Saudi Arabia to support her husband ringside, posted an emotional message online, stating that Fury was 'still the best man' in her eyes.

The two fighters will soon clash again. A rematch clause was inked into both of their contracts. They are set to fight once again in Riyadh in October.

Yet note, it will not be for the undisputed championship. That is because the IBF will strip the belt from Usyk because he will be unable to face mandatory challenger Filip Hrgovic because of the Fury rematch.
