Tyson Fury press conferences rarely go off without some form of talking point. This one was no different.
Building up to his July 9 rematch with Wladimir Klitschko, the Mancunian taunted the Ukranian by removing his shirt and claiming his opponent should be ashamed of losing to a man that is so overweight.
“Look at this Klitschko,” Fury claimed, pointing at his stomach. “This beat you. Shame on you! You were beaten by a fat man!
“He’s a dangerous opponent, because I don’t live like a champion. I’m not an athlete. Don’t call me an athlete.
“I mean look at this, does this look like a fighter’s body?”

Fury added that he didn’t enjoy being a boxer, and would have no qualms with taking early retirement if Klitschko defeated him.
“I hate boxing. I hate it, I hate training, I hate speaking to all of you idiots.
“I would rather be at home eating sweets and chocolate with my kids. I hate boxing. But I am too f**king good at it to stop,” he claimed.
“I hope Klitschko has the best camp and I hope he knocks me into next week. Because then I can retire happy and go on holiday,” Fury added.
