Tyson Fury not allowing past demons to negatively affect preparation for third fight with Deontay Wilder
CBSN
Fury, who will make the first title defense of his pro career, has made it a point to continue training and keep focusing on the task at hand ahead of the trilogy fight
Throughout his unbeaten career, WBC and lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has regularly defied the odds inside the ring regardless of the credentials of the fighters who have stood across from him.
The self-proclaimed "Gypsy King" hasn't had the same success in a personal life filled with equal levels of dramatic highs and lows throughout the same time, which makes it worth questioning whether the 6-foot-9 Fury's defining opponent throughout a 13-year pro career has routinely been himself.
Fury (30-0-1, 21 KOs) enters Saturday's contractually obligated third fight with former champion Deontay Wilder (42-1-1, 41 KOs) under an interesting set of circumstances as the two giants prepare to touch gloves inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas for the first time for both since their second meeting some 20 months ago.
