TYSON Fury was spotted walking in Northwich town centre.
The lofty professional boxer was seen sporting a smart tweed overcoat and matching flat cap outside the Penny Black pub on Witton Street.
The 36-year-old was being pursued by a full film crew, leading to speculation online about what exactly he was filming.
Some onlookers made enquiries, but production staff were cagey about giving too much away.
One theory is the self-styled 'Gypsy King' was filming a promotional video for his upcoming fight with Oleksandr Usyk on December 21, billed as the pair’s ‘Christmas rematch’.
The 36-year-old lost out on the chance to become the first undisputed heavyweight world champion in 25 years when he lost to Usyk on points in Saudi Arabia in May.
Other suggestions include he was there recording a Hellman’s Mayonnaise advert being filmed a Birtwisles Butchers, also on Witton Street, but this not confirmed.
Fury is originally from Wythenshawe in Manchester, but currently lives in Morecambe in Lancashire with his wife, Paris, and their six children.
