The body is the target for Tyson and bro Tommy
WORLD heavyweight champion Tyson Fury says he and brother Tommy have plans to become bodybuilders after his clash with Dillian Whyte.
Fury has teased that Saturday’s defence of his WBC belt at Wembley Stadium will be his last boxing match. If that really is the case then plans seem to be well underway for what comes next.
Fury said: “After all these fights, I still love this game.
“But I don’t actually need boxing, which is fantastic, because I won’t be one of those people who can’t walk away.
“What I do need is physical workouts, I need to train, run, lift weights, to be doing that once or twice a day for ever, and why wouldn’t I want to train after finishing boxing? I’m always going to have to train — I’ve got a giant fat man inside me willing to get out every single day.
“So I need to keep him at bay with a long jab and training keeps me happy.
“Me and my brother Thomas, aka Tommy Fury, we’re going to become bodybuilders after the fight.
“I’m going to try to get in fantastic shape
and he’s going to try to look like Ronnie Coleman — fantastic.”
“For now, Fury insists he is 100 per cent focused on Whyte and he cannot wait for those final few minutes in his changing-room before his ring walk.
He added: “The way I’d describe it for the non-boxing fan is like a lion running on the plains of Africa in a high-speed chase with a gazelle, chasing it down for lunch.
“And then it’s locked up in zoo, somewhere like Blackpool. In that moment, you feel alive.
“It awakens every sense in your body, your survival senses.
“Nothing in the world feels like when you’re about to fight.” ttyson Fury versus Deontay Wilder at Wembley Stadium, brought to you by Queensbury and Top Rank, is live on BT Sport Box Office.
