'The Diamond' told Ariel Helwani on The MMA Hour about whether or not he would like to box:

"I would love to [box]. That would be fun. That excites me. But I still have seven fights on my contract with the UFC... I don't know [if they would let me box]."

An intoxicated Tyson Fury caught on camera

While intoxicated, Tyson Fury was recently spotted at Nowhere Bar in his hometown Morecambe, Lancashire. Videos released by onlookers revealed that two security personnel escorted him out of the venue and showed him to the door. After leaving the pub, he seemed to struggle with maintaining his balance and fell face-first on the pavement.

The Sun reported that a source close to Fury said the fighter had not had a drink in more than a year and was not feeling well after having "a couple too many." Fans did not miss this opportunity to kick the man while he was down and took to social media to throw jabs.

Sean O'Malley concerned for Ryan Garcia

Sean O'Malley is worried about Ryan Garcia's mental state after the boxer was recently arrested at Waldorf Astoria in Beverly Hills for damaging hotel property. The hotel filed charges seeking over $15,000 in damages, which is well over the felony threshold for vandalism in the state of California.

Speaking on the matter, UFC star Sean O'Malley expressed concern for Garcia during a recent episode of TimboSugarShow podcast. He said:

"He probably got blacked out, f**ked up... I get f**king blacked, you know? All hell breaks loose... He's got issues. Did you see him talking about his mom having cancer and then if she dies, he's going to kill himself type sh*t? Did you see that? That's f**king scary... He's not doing good."
