Don’t be scared, homie! Heavyweight Tyson Fury has been vocal about his desire to beat up any man in his weight division including UFC Champion Cain Velasquez, and now he has some not so kind words for Wladimir Klitschko.
When asked why he feels they’ve yet to meet in the ring, he responded, “I’ll give you a straight answer, because Wladimir Klitschko is scared to death of Tyson Fury. He knows in his own mind and his heart he can’t beat me.
The 6’9″ Tyson Fury against the 6’6” Klitschko would surely be an intriguing clash as they are two of the most towering fighters at Heavyweight. Fury had more to say about Klitschko “The problems that these other guys have had is they’ve shit themselves before they go in there. They don’t really want to fight when they feel a bit of power and they see fifty-thousand people roaring in Germany, they sort of be a little chicken and want to get out of there, but with me it’s the total opposite. I’m gonna go there in his backyard, break his jaw, rip his heart out and take all the belts off of him.”
Fury will make his debut in the United States opposite Steve Cunningham, less than a month away (April, 20, 2013) at Madison Square Garden. His opponent primarily fights in the Cruiserweight division and is stepping up to face Fury. If he can win impressively in his next fight does it warrant a shot at Klitschko?
At least Tyson can match his height and reach and turn it into anything but a one-sided war and possibly force Klitschko to show us some other tools he has?
