Boxing champ Tyson Fury stops for pictures with GMP officers on trip to Manchester

World heavyweight champ Tyson Fury was all smiles as he stopped for a picture with two Greater Manchester Police officers over the weekend.

The Gyspsy King took the snap with beat bobbies at the Exchange Square in Manchester City centre as he enjoyed his Sunday night.

Sharing the snap of a grinning Fury - who stands a whopping 6ft 8in and weighs in at 18 stone - flanked by two officers, Greater Manchester Police said: "Whilst out fighting crime, our officers had ringside seats with this knock out champ, who was more than happy to have a photo with our neighbourhood team in Exchange Square."

Fury, from Manchester, stopped fellow British heavyweight Dillian Whyte with a ferocious uppercut at Wembley last month to retain his WBC world heavyweight belt.

In 2015, Fury was visited by officers from the force when comments he made about homosexuality were reported as a hate crime.
