Fury, 35, has essentially gone radio silent ahead of the historic and career-defining showdown.

Unlike camps of yesteryear, Fury isn’t regularly taking to social media to give fans updates.

But he’s broken his mini blackout over the last few days to give his followers some insight into what he’s been doing.

Taking to his Instagram story on Saturday afternoon, the WBC heavyweight champion shared a clip of himself and his team getting a training session in at the gym.

And Team Fury were in good spirits as they sang the chorus to Neil Diamond’s ‘Sweet Caroline’.

His follow-up stories included snaps from Friday night’s Joy Awards in Riyadh, which he donned yet another colourful suit for.

And the former unified champion was left starstruck when he bumped into Hollywood superstar Kevin Costner.

Fury posed for a snap with the 69-year-old and his manager Spencer Brown.

Given the magnitude of the fight with Usyk, it’s not beyond the realms of possibility that Fury goes radio silent again ahead of the February 17 clash.

The Wythenshawe warrior knows he faces a difficult task to permanently write his name into the history books.

He said: “It’s going to be one of the fights for the ages.

“I believe we are both destined to be here and to be in this big fight in Saudi Arabia.

“And there’s only one winner, and I am destined to become the undisputed champion.

“More than that, I am destined to cement my legacy as the No. 1 fighter in this era.

“To do that I have to beat this little man and that’s it, simple as.

“Easier said than done I understand, he’s a tricky man, good boxer, slick.

“But I have seen many people like him before and when they fight the big men they struggle.

“He’s going to struggle on February 17 and he’s going to lose, I will break him for sure.”
