Tyson Fury: Joshua has been doing a good job of polishing my belts!

Written by Keeran Rajan on 8th March 2018.

Tyson Fury has been very vocal once again ahead of his highly anticipated return to the ring drawing ever closer.

He recently was in camp with the former WBA world heavyweight champion, Lucas Browne. Browne is currently deep into his preparations for his upcoming showdown against Dillian Whyte this month.

Fury began by discussing what an opponent would have to do in order to take his undefeated record from him. Fury shared some words that the renown trainer, Brendan Ingle once said about him.

“Brendan Ingle once said, it’s easy to beat Tyson Fury, very, very easy.”

“Nail him to the canvas, because if you can’t do that I’m going to eat you up, eat you all up.”

Fury then took the opportunity to remind everybody why there is so much excitement in the heavyweight division at this moment in time. He then complimented Joshua on doing a good job of ‘polishing my belts.’

“I opened the division up for all these heavyweights to have world titles. Joshua has been doing a good job of polishing my belts, keeping them nice and warm.”

“Deontay Wilder, Anthony Joshua, whoever else, I’m coming for you” Fury warned.

On his current condition, Fury says he is getting there but there is still work to be done.

“I could probably fight this weekend. It’s been a long time coming. I’ve been out a long time, two-and-a-half years.”

“My ambition is to get in the ring again and get under those lights. I told them recently I want to get some baby oil on, shining, glistening, looking the part.”

“Lifting a few weights now. I used to call Joshua a bodybuilder, but I’m starting to look like a bodybuilder now. Taking my protein shakes, getting to bed early and dreaming about smashing people’s faces in.”

Deontay Wilder earned rave reviews this past weekend for becoming the first man to defeat Luis ‘King Kong’ Ortiz.

However, Fury is not worried in the slightest about a fight with Wilder and claimed ‘The Bronze Bomber’s fighting style is made for him.

He’s made for me. Whatever happens in his career, whether he gets knocked out in his next fight, I want to fight him, because we’ve got unfinished business.

“When I get in the ring, I’ll really give him a good hiding.”

“He’s a good puncher and he has got a puncher’s chance all the way through until the end of the fight.”

Fury believes he has the most polished set of skills in the heavyweight division currently. Fury also shared his belief that he will score a knockout of Wilder.

“But I believe I’ve got the best boxing skills in the division.

“I’ll give him a boxing lesson, and then I’ll stop him, all 15 stone of him.”
