Tyson Fury took cocaine to help deal with depression

World heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury says he has been taking cocaine to help him deal with depression.

Fury, 28, said he has suffered mental health issues for years and has not trained since May.

“I’ve been out drinking, Monday to Friday to Sunday, and taking cocaine,” the British fighter told Rolling Stone magazine.

“I can’t deal with it and the only thing that helps me is when I get drunk out of my mind.”

He added: “They say I’ve got a version of bipolar. I’m a manic depressive. I just hope someone kills me before I kill myself.”
