"It's a circus, not camp”: Fury's father is concerned about Tyson's preparation for bout agains Usyk

John Fury, Tyson Fury's father, is deeply concerned about his son's preparation for the heavyweight championship bout against Alexander Usyk.

According to him, the Ukrainian's training camp is organized significantly better and proves to be more efficient.

"I never said my son was in decline because he's not.It's the people around him who ain't up to much. His training's in decline and his camp's in a bigger decline.

It's not a camp, it's a circus. I was shocked at what I saw. I knew he wasn't right when I put my eyes on him, when I got off the plane. I hadn't seen him, I'd been in camp with Tommy [for the KSI fight]. I saw him in the gym in Saudi, watched him spar three or four rounds with a couple of kids - I knew then it was gonna be a hard night's work. I thought, 'What have you been doing?' I was alarmed, I still am.

Unless you're gonna get the eye of the tiger back and go back to the old ways and get the hunger back - sweat, blood, s*** and tears. Because Usyk's doing that - sweat, blood, s*** and tears. And he's got disciplined, professional, great people around him, and I don't think Tyson has that. I really don't." quotes John Fury talkSports.

Previously, Fury Senior expressed concern that his son might not achieve optimal conditioning before the bout against Usyk.

The fight for the undisputed heavyweight world championship is scheduled for February 17th in Saudi Arabia.
