TYSON FURY has been told to fight his mental health issues out of the public eye.
Fury, 28, is having treatment after being told he has “a version of bipolar” and is “manic depressive”.
Paul Farmer, chief executive of mental health charity Mind, insists the boxer needs time alone to return to full health.
He said: “If your condition is serious, a stay in a mental health in-patient unit can be required.
“Trained clinicians can help get people out of a crisis.
