Tyson Fury starts training camp for Oleksandr Usyk after pair finally agree terms for huge world title unification fight


TYSON FURY has started his training camp for a mouth-watering undisputed fight against OIeksandr Usyk.

On Friday night the 36-year-old WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight champ accepted the WBC Gypsy King’s 70-30 offer to agree their April 29 Wembley showdown.

But the London 2012 gold winner demanded Fury, 34, donate £1million to help his brave nation fight back Russian invaders, as part of the deal.

Fury took to Morecambe Bay for a run on Saturday and confirmed the countdown to the four-belt decider is ON.

But he refused to mention the seven-figure donation he committed to, by forcing Usyk to accept such a slim slice of the pie.

While jogging alongside the sea, he said: “Today is the first day of my training for the Usyk fight.

“I don’t need six months or four months, I just have six weeks and a week’s rest, done, happy days.

“I am going to impose my will on this little, sneaky mother f***er.”

Fury also tried to make it a fight for national pride against the Ukrainian, who bravely fought on the front line against Russia.

The undefeated 6ft 9in ace roared: “Get up lads. I cannot wait. Rule Britannia!”

Like Anthony Joshua – who lost his titles after back-to-back losses to Usyk – Fury will struggle to find sparring partners to match-up to and imitate the 6ft 3in southpaw.

He has flown in his New Zealand pal Joseph Parker – who will have to ditch his usual orthodox stance if he is to be any use.

And he has former Marine and expert sports chef George Lockhart living with him preparing meals to fuel him.

On the steps of his Lancashire mansion, Fury added: “I have flown my good buddy and brother Joseph Parker in for sparring, we will do 10-12 rounds today.

“George Lockhart has already been here a couple of days so we are ready to rock and roll.

“Usyk, you are on a warning, you’re on notice, six weeks sucker, we are coming for you!”

Channeling his inner gladiator he bellowed: “Sparta!”

Fury previously hit out at “gappy-toothed, ugly b******” Usyk in a foul-mouthed rant.

He said: “Usyk, you little s***bag. Sign the contract, get your money and get f***ed up.

“You little s***house. You’re a little gappy-toothed, ugly b******. Sign the contract.”

And Fury even hit out at Logan Paul, following brother Tommy’s win over the American’s sibling Jake.

He said: “Logan Paul, you little bitch.
