TYSON FURY has much more in his locker than Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder – especially dance moves – according to his new trainer.
Javan ‘Sugar’ Hill, nephew of legendary Kronk trainer Emanuel Steward, has taken over training duties from Ben Davison for the Wilder rematch on February 22.

The American and the Gypsy King are working together in Las Vegas, city of showmen, where the fight will take place at the iconic MGM.
And the experienced trainer has been bowled over by the 6ft 9in star’s fancy footwork, which he feels runs rings around AJ and the Bronze Bomber.
Hill said: “Tyson loves to dance. He’s very creative. He’s so athletic and coordinated for such a big man.
“You can group Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder as being one-punch guys.
“They don’t have some of the other things Tyson does but Tyson can also get you out there with one punch.
“Tyson has character and charisma and that strong desire to win.”
Fury gets his second crack at the WBC title in five weeks, following the controversial December 2018 draw.
And his UK promoter Frank Warren told SunSport that win, lose or draw, a trilogy fight is in the diary for the summer.
And Hill believes his new charge will dethrone the American and go on to snatch the remaining WBA, IBF and WBO belts that are around Joshua’s waist, for now.
“2020 is going to be a huge year for Tyson”, he said. “The way I was brought up, I want him to be undisputed heavyweight champion.
“I’m not a big talker, really. Me and Tyson are on the same page.

“We speak about things we’re going to work on. We’re in agreement.
“We’re satisfied and I think he can do the job. It’s a perfect combination.
“2020 is a good year. All this positive energy is going to put us in the right place.”
