Tyson Fury was 'laughing about' the video of himself recently being escorted out of a bar in Morecambe, it has been claimed.
The 35-year-old was recently seen enjoying himself in his favourite town, with Fury also appearing to fall over outside.
Friends are said to be concerned about the Briton, who recently suffered a first defeat as a professional against Oleksandr Usyk.
It was recently claimed they were worried about the heavyweight star potentially spiralling, having battled alcohol addiction in the past.

Yet Parker, speaking to Seconds Out, has now downplayed the incident.
“I feel like it’s just someone having a blowout, maybe got a bit too happy and had too many drinks," said Parker, who is Fury's training partner.
"I’m sure everyone has been through the same thing.”
When quizzed on how Fury reacted to the video, Parker then said the boxing star was 'laughing about it' and 'celebrating life'.
Fury has also since updated worried fans, insisting he's prepared to do everything in order to become Usyk and become undisputed heavyweight champion of the world.

"On December 21st in Riyadh, in the heart of the kingdom, the king will reclaim his throne and become undisputed," he said.
"Usyk, I’m coming for you!
"Get ready for the Gypsy King! The path to redemption is all mine.
"I know what I have to do, I saw my shortcomings and best believe I am inevitable."
While Fury has laughed off the incident, some have criticised the individual who captured the footage.

Carl Froch has defended his fellow Briton, calling the person who leaked it a 't**t'.
And Simon Jordan has also shielded Fury, insisting the boxing star didn't deserve to be filmed without his permission.
Fury's cutman Jorge Capetillo, meanwhile, has insisted Fury is 'really good' and 'ready to rock and roll' as he prepares to return to the ring on December 21.
Beating Usyk won't be straightforward, especially given how well the Ukrainian performed in the first bout.
But Capetillo, speaking to Betway, says Fury is well and determined to come back stronger.
