Klitschko afraid to fight me, says Fury

Tyson Fury is Wladimir Klitschko’s mandatory challenger but he doubts whether the Ukrainian has the courage to face him as he fears being knocked out.

Fury took part in a training camp with Klitschko in Austria in 2010 when the IBF, WBA and WBO super heavyweight champion was preparing to face another Briton in Dereck Chisora.

Chisora lost that rearranged fight in 2012 and was beaten convincingly by Fury last month in a contest where a mandatory challenge to Klitschko’s WBO title was at stake.
