The former heavyweight king posted three videos of himself with a pal in the car while on his way to the gym.

But due to the -2degree temperature, he was forced to wrap up warm this morning.
He said: "It's f***ing freezing where I am so I had to bring me old chinchilla bad boy out.
"For the real rudeboy that I am . . . coat's warm . . . breaking out the locker . . . busting out, man."
Fury is a big fan of the luxurious jacket having incorporated it in his social media profile picture.

He was pictured with the same coat last year leaving a Manchester restaurant.
More than 200 chinchillas may be killed to create a single coat.
Beat the Chilla
The Dorthea Chinchilla Fur Jacket worn by Fury can be bought in Harrods for £8,999.
The description for the coat reads: "Exclusively designed for the luxurious Harrods of London collection, the Dorothea jacket is crafted from naturally striped pelts of genuine chinchilla fur.
"Complete with concealed hook fastenings and hand-warming pockets, this indulgent day-to-night cover-up is perfect layered over tailored trousers and cashmere knits.
"A worthy investment piece to be treasured for years to come."
A PETA spokesperson said: "There's nothing tough about wearing the skin of tortured animals, and we can't help but think that Tyson Fury must be trying to hide some sort of insecurity by showing off in this cruel coat."
While the weather may be cold, a potential return to the ring for Fury is heating up.

Fights against Anthony Joshua, Deontay Wilder and Joseph Parker have all been touted.
But the most traction has been given to a potential bust up with Tony Bellew.
He is hard at work shedding the extra pounds he has gained since his last fight against Wladimir Klitschko in November 2015.
The pair have been at odds with each other since Bellew's rematch against David Haye fell through.

Fury, 29, wrote on Twitter: "@TonyBellew I’ve had enough of your nonsense, s*** bag! U won’t fight @anthonyfjoshua as your scared but if Haye beats u! He will so whats that say? #s***house #bumcity #1round."
Bellew, 35, responded: "I believe I can beat you… I 100% know I hit harder than you! I’m quicker than you! Only question for me is? How much can you take?"
It was believed Fury's ring return had suffered a setback when he failed to turn up for his UKAD hearing in London.
But today his promotional team said in a statement: "To be clear Tyson Fury was not required to be at the UKAD hearing yesterday."
