Tyson Fury has shown off his new boxing licence ahead of his return to the ring.
Former world champion Fury will compete in his first boxing match since beating Wladimir Klitschko in November 2015.
He surrendered his titles shortly after the fight after admitting that he was struggling with mental health problems.
But the British Boxing Board of Control have agreed to reinstate his licence ahead of a return to the ring, which could eventually culminate in a blockbuster clash with Anthony Joshua .
He posted a picture of his new licence on Instagram alongside the caption: "Officially back! Watch me go!"

Fury, 29, has his sights set on a fight with Joshua but promoter Frank Warren wants to see him have at least four warm-up fights before taking the deal.
Fury said: “I could beat AJ tomorrow night; I could beat Wilder, Joseph Parker, all of them.

“I wanted to fight AJ for my comeback fight, because I don’t rate him at all against me. I just think I’ve got his number — my style is all wrong for him.
“Within a couple of fights I will win a world title back, 100 per cent. I’m looking to win one back this year.”
