Tyson Fury back in training, promises Klitschko “doesn’t know what he’s in for!”
By James Slater
Tyson Fury seems convinced that to beat heavyweight king Wladimir Klitschko a fast start out of the blocks will prove essential. Speaking with Sky Sports’ “The Gloves Are Off,” Fury – who is back in serious training, in Ireland, now that his postponed date with Klitschko is back on for November 28th – said, well, lots of things:
“Just expect a wild animal,” he said. “I’ll be a tiger, a lion, a bear, whatever you like. Have I ever shown weakness on big occasions? There’s a lot more from me. I’ve got a lot of stuff up my sleeves. Wladimir doesn’t know what he’s in for.”
Fury sat across from Klitschko as he talked, yet the heavyweight boss seemed to merely smile and be amused at his challenger’s comments. Is Klitschko genuinely laughing at Fury, or is he hiding some real apprehension? Fury certainly seems to believe Klitschko is intimidated by him.
Hopefully, barring a second postponement – heaven forbid – we will find out at the tail end of next month. And when Fury speaks of having “a lot of stuff up my sleeves,” is he perhaps referring to his ability to box from the southpaw stance? Maybe Fury will try this on fight night. Another interesting things regarding Fury is his wish to bring in, amongst other fighters, Joseph Parker for sparring. Peter Fury told the New Zealand press how he is very impressed with the unbeaten heavyweight.
“We have looked for Joseph Parker to come and join the camp and help us get ready for Klitschko,” Peter Fury told Stuff.co.nz. “If he could come and join us we’d welcome him with open arms because he is a very good prospect.”
Klitschko Vs. Fury is now seven weeks away.
