Another step on the comeback trail has been taken by Tyson Fury.
Fury is well on his way to making his return to the ring and now that he's close to fighting shape, he feels comfortable engaging in some sparring against legitimate fighters.
For the first time in over a year, Fury sparred on Tuesday afternoon and he didn't ease himself into either as he enlisted the help of undefeated Aussie Lucas Browne for a bit of work.
After some early morning training, Fury travelled into Manchester to begin whittling away any ring rust that has accrued over the past two years.

After ballooning up to 27 stone, Fury has since shed almost all of the excess weight and looks considerably healthier and happier than he has in recent months.
Fury said: "Just in the gym, feeling good, just did a massive weights circuit. Look at these arms, getting there.
"Just going to have some food now and then I'll make my way over to Manchester to do a bit of sparring with Lucas 'Big Daddy' Browne.

"I'm looking forward it actually because it's my first spar back in over a year so it's going to be fantastic. Training is going well.
"I should have some big updates for you in the next day or so. I know I've been teasing you but it's really happening, man."
Browne is preparing for his March 24 bout against WBC Silver heavyweight champion Dillian Whyte and he got some solid rounds under his belt this week thanks to Fury.
