TYSON FURY jokingly fat-shamed Susanna Reid on Good Morning Britain.
The former heavyweight king shed nearly four stone since returning to training and hopes to weigh in at 18½st for his comeback fight on June 9.
When asked by Susanna about his dramatic weight loss, Fury replied: “What kind of coffee have you got there?”
When she told him “a white coffee”, he said: “Well change it to a black coffee and you lose them [pounds]… not that you need to!”
A shocked Susanna said: “I just got fat shamed by Tyson Fury,” before putting her fists up to the 6ft 8in giant.
Fury, 29, described himself as a “fat mess” in November as he worked on getting back to full fitness.
Susanna, 47, was not the only host to get on the wrong side of Fury as he jokingly squared up to Piers Morgan.
Fury towered over Piers, 53, with GMB tweeting: “The fight we all want to see!”

But a punch-up looks unlikely after the pair hugged it out.
Fury makes his long-awaited return to boxing in June having not fought since dethroning Wladimir Klitschko in November 2015.

He was cleared to return to the ring in December after accepting a backdated two-year ban following a failed drugs test.
Fury hopes to win back his IBF, IBO, WBA and WBO titles with a blockbuster bout against Anthony Joshua touted.
He added: “I needed a bit of time out away from the sport.
“But I’m back now with a vengeance.
“Psychologically I needed a rest.
“I’ve been boxing since I was a boy. I feel fresh now, I feel rejuvenated.”
Fury was seen sparring for the first time since announcing his return on Saturday in footage leaked by fellow boxer Billy Joe Saunders.
