Fury chasing knockout in rematch with Wilder
Tyson Fury vows to chase a knockout in next month's eagerly anticipated rematch with WBC champion Deontay Wilder.
British boxer Tyson Fury isn't afraid to admit what he's getting up to as he prepares for a highly anticipated heavyweight rematch with American Deontay Wilder next month.
The 31-year-old is about to go into camp to ramp up preparations for the February 22 bout in Las Vegas, where Fury has boldly predicted he will knock Wilder out within the first two rounds.
Before going into pre-fight camp, Fury revealed he's already tweaked his preparation for the fight, which includes the bizarre.
"I'm masturbating seven times a day, keep my testosterone pumping," he told media.
"If it's gonna give me an edge, I'm willing to try it."
The December 2018 bout between the pair in Los Angeles, which ended in a controversial split draw, still irks Fury.
He is adamant he won't get a points decision in the US next month, claiming it's a knockout or nothing.
"They had to rob a man who had been out of the ring for three years and they still couldn't beat him," he said.
"I'm not coming here for a points decision, I've had too many of them - nine of them - I'm coming here for a knockout, I've had 21 of them and from the heart that's what I'm looking to do."
After Fury predicted he would KO the 34-year-old Wilder, the American replied by picking up his own microphone and loudly sniffing it, mocking Fury for his past problems with drug abuse.
"I'm prepared for more than ever," Wilder said.
"I told Fury two years ago I was going to baptise him, and I did just that. Rising up is part of the baptism. I told him he was going to go, `Timber!' And he did just that. This time around, it's called unfinished business. He won't be able to get back up. This time, I'm going to knock him out."
British boxing star Tyson Fury has revealed his bizarre preparation ahead of his rematch with Deontay Wilder.
While Wilder is aiming for a knockout, he also believes he can win a decision.
He also feels the first fight should have been stopped due to a deep cut on Fury's face. In fact, Wilder thinks he would have won the first fight on the scorecards if he hadn't given away a few early rounds by coming out "overexcited and anxious".
"But when you have devastating power like I do, you don't worry about rounds," Wilder said. "He's got to survive 12 rounds with me."
Wilder also suggested Fury's bravado masks the British boxer's worries about his chin and his American opponent's ferocity.
Wilder points to Fury's less-than-impressive effort against Sweden's Otto Wallin in September as a sign of his decline.
"When you get knocked down like that, and you don't know how you got on the ground, let alone how you got up, it's scary," Wilder said of his 12th-round knockdown of Fury.
"It's not only scary for you. It's scary for your friends, your family, because they know you're going in there with that monster."
