Cocaine shamed Tyson Fury sparks further controversy after uploading Twitter video singing Afroman’s ‘Because I Got High’

Heavyweight champ has recently had his boxing licence revoked after admitting his drug binges

TYSON FURY has sparked further controversy over his cocaine shame - by uploading a video of him singing Afroman's 'Because I got high'.

The former world heavyweight champ has had his boxing career marred after failing a cocaine test and later admitting he has binged on the Class A drug.

Fury recently had his boxing licence revoked and gave up his title belts, pending a probe into "doping and medical issues".

But as talk emerges that the Brit could check himself in at rehab, the 28-year-old looks like he has little care in the world singing along to Afroman's famous number.

Alongside him in his car is his wife Paris who is also miming the lyrics before Fury takes both hands off the steering wheel and blaring out the lyrics.

In the Twitter upload to his 500,000 followers, which has since been deleted, Fury also tags some of boxing's biggest names including Eddie Hearn and Frank Warren.

Just two weeks ago Fury sensationally confessed his cocaine binges.

He told “I’ve done lots of cocaine. Lots of it.

“Why shouldn’t I take cocaine? It’s my life isn’t it? I can do what I want."
