The iconic ‘Gypsy King’ Tyson Fury is set to make a sensational comeback after a hiatus of over 7 months. As he prepares for an explosive showdown, it is worth pondering that he is currently one of the best boxers that the heavyweight division has produced. In fact, he proved the same by recently decking his trainer with a counter hook.

Fury is currently preparing to fight Derek Chisora for their trilogy showdown. Meanwhile, he recently had his media workout ahead of this upcoming fight. The newly released video showed Fury shadowboxing as his trainer, SugarHill Steward, prepared himself to hold the mitts.

The duo then proceeded to perform a focus mitt drill with Steward trying to sneak in some sly offenses. It should be mentioned that Fury looked extremely fluid and agile for a boxer his size.

However, Fury quickly showed why he is currently one of the biggest names in the heavyweight division. Steward tried to hit with a left hook aimed at his chin. Fury, on the other hand, was quick to hit back with a right counter to Steward’s face.
