TYSON FURY says he “only has three fights left” – and he knows exactly who he wants.
Next up will be Deontay Wilder on February 22, with Fury desperate for revenge after their first fight was scored a draw.

Many boxing pundits, fans and ex-fighters thought the Gypsy King was robbed of victory back in December 2018.
Once that is over, Fury wants two huge domestic clashes against Anthony Joshua and Dillian Whyte.
And despite the growing clamour over Oleksandr Usyk after he stepped up from cruiserweight, Fury just isn’t interested.
Speaking to iFL TV, the 31-year-old Lineal champ said: “Usyk isn’t on the list. It’s no name, no-ones interested and it doesn’t make any money.
“So what would I want to fight him for? He’s a small cruiserweight, doesn’t speak good English and he’s not setting anything alight.
“I want the big fights and that isn’t one of them.
“In Ukraine he might be a big star, but Britain and America aren’t interested in some Ukrainian boxer.”
KEEPING TESTOSTERONE PUMPING
He then went on to say he would take fights with current WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO heavyweight champ Joshua and WBC mandatory Whyte.
Should Fury beat Wilder in a few weeks it could well mean he defends the green belt against the Bodysnatcher Whyte.
Fury added: “He’s been mandatory for 2000 days and hasn’t had a shot.
“When I beat Wilder I’ll give him a shot.”
And to prepare him for his big shot at Wilder, Fury revealed an explicit way of preparation – by masturbating SEVEN times a day.
Speaking after the first press conference concluded ahead of the big fight, the 31-year-old said: “I’m doing a lot of things I didn’t before.
“I’m eating five/six meals a day, drinking eight litres of water. If it’s gonna give me an edge, I’m willing to try it.
“I’m masturbating seven times a day to keep my testosterone pumping.”
Fury, married to wife Paris since 2008 with the couple having five children, then quoted lines from the 2004 hit song by Danzel, titled Pump It Up.
He added: “Pump it, pump it, pump it, pump it up! Dontcha know!
“I gotta to keep active and the testosterone flowing for the fight. Don’t want the levels to go down.”
