TYSON FURY is back in training for his eagerly-anticipated rematch against Deontay Wilder.
And he’s already working on the most important tactic – how to avoid Wilder’s devastating right hand.

That of course put the Gypsy King down twice in their first clash, including THAT 12th round flooring that Fury somehow managed to get back to his feet from.
The Brit uploaded a video of him sparring with lead trainer Ben Davison.
And his other coach, former world champ Ricky Hatton also shared the clip on his Instagram page.
Fury was in Hyde, Manchester at Hatton’s gym completing 12 rounds on the mitts for the first time in months.

FURY WANTS REVENGE
Fury and Wilder fought to a controversial draw on December 1 last year with the American retaining his WBC strap.
But many believe Fury was cheated out of claiming the only world title belt he has never owned before.
Despite two knockdowns, Fury easily outboxed the American banger.
Now Fury and Wilder are scheduled to go at it again on February 22.
Speaking on Instagram Stories, Fury said: “I just got back from a brutal session with Ben [Davsion] at Ricky Hatton’s gym.
“I’m absolutely smash, I done 12 rounds, the first time on the pads with Ben in a while.
“It was pretty tough to be fair but I’m so happy that I got it in.”
Wilder dropped Fury with the right early on in their fight, before a combination finished with a left to down the Brit in the 12th.
But in his last fight against Luis Ortiz, Wilder showed just how much power he possesses in his right fist by blasting the Cuban out in the sixth.
And before that against Dominic Breazeale, Wilder left his opponent seeing stars with a first round KO.
