As reported that a urine sample taken from Fury in February 2015 has traces of banned substance nandrolone. The legal team for the pair says the result of tests from March and May 2015 were contradictory and had issued proceedings in the High court.
Tyson, 27 year-old who beat Wladimir Klitschko to win the WBA and WBO heavyweight titles in November 2015 had his cousin and fellow boxer Hughie charged as well.
A statement from lawyer Lewis Power is that: "The two boxers strenuously deny taking any performance-enhancing drugs.
"However, during the last five weeks, leaks about these charges have appeared in the press and both boxers have been the targets of continual abusive language on Twitter."
UKAD have not made the test public at any point and declined to comment. Tyson's legal team said an interim judgement was expected before Fury's rematch with Klitschko in October was initially scheduled to take place in Manchester on 9th July but for Tyson pulled out due to ankle injury sustained.
