Lennox Lewis claims Tyson Fury will be fired up for his rematch with Deontay Wilder because he was robbed in their first fight.

Lewis knows the anger Fury felt at the highly-controversial draw 18 months ago because he was also the victim of some disgraceful judging in his first fight with Evander Holyfield in

That fight in Madison Square Garden was scored a draw, even though virtually everyone watching felt Lewis had won.

Lewis used this controversy as motivation for the rematch nine months later at the Thomas and Mack Center in Las Vegas and he won by a unanimous points decision.

“Absolutely, Fury will be feeling that injustice,” said the former world heavyweight king. “Fury says he got ripped off. He believes he won the fight so that’s got to give him confidence.

“I felt confident after my first fight with Holyfield. I knew I had to let everyone know who the best heavyweight was. “I wanted to prove to everyone that I was the better man, and I did that.”

Wilder has come in a staggering lb heavier than he did for his first fight with fury – although he is still thr ee stone lighter than his challenger.

“Think Wilder coming in heavier It is an advantage to Tyson, ”he tweeted.

“ He can punch at any weight, the added weight will slow him down and fatigue him quicker, he’s an explosive type athlete, not an endurance built athlete. ”

(Fury looking to ‘complete boxing’

He has won the English, British, Commonwealth, European, WBA, IBF, WBO and Ring Magazine titles.

If he beats Deontay Wilder he will claim the WBC belt and become the first British fighter to hold all four major heavyweight crowns.

Yet Tyson Fury will still be annoyed he never won the Central Area title.

“After I beat Wilder I will have achieved everything in boxing and won every single belt there is – English, Irish, British, Commonwealth, European, a whole lot of intern ational and intercontinental belts, every single world title belt there is and two Ring Magazine belts, ”he said.

“There’s just about room at home for the WBC belt. I’ll get another cabinet for it, but it’ll be touching the roof. “The only belt I didn’t win, which I’m pretty pissed about, is the Central Area title. I think it’s vacant, so you never know! ”

Fury won the British and Commonwealth titles by beating Dereck Chisora

:
Will Fury’s cut open up? One of the main talking points around tonight’s fight is the cut Fury suffered in his last fight against Otto Wallin.

Fury suffered the nasty injury above his right eye in the third round and had to be nursed through until the final bell when he was awarded the fight on points.

He has since employed renowned cutman Stitch Duran to ensure it does not open up in the ring later – but Wilder reckons it has already happened in sparring.

Speaking in a video posted on his Fury won the British and Commonwealth titles by beating Dereck Chisora Instagram page, Wilder said: “I heard it got reopened in sparring, that’s why he was wearing the hoodie and the shades at the press conference.

” If I cut that thing open again it’s going to be a mess and we’re going to see what happens after that.

“But I hope it doesn’t open, because I don’t want this fight to stop. I want people to get their full viewing and money worth for the fight. ”

(Haye expresses Fury fear David Haye fears Tyson Fury will regret changing his trainer just two months before his re match with Deontay Wilder .

Fury ditched friend and trainer Ben Davison – who had helped him back from the depths of a drink and drug-fueled depression – weeks before the biggest fight of his career.

Instead he has installed SugarHill Steward (below), nephew of the late, great Emanuel, in his corner for his sequel with the hard-hitting American.

Fury insists the split was amicable after Davison decided he did not want to share the training responsibilities.

But Betfair ambassador Haye . believes the decision could backfire.

“Tyson changing his trainer could be a disadvantage,” he told Mirror Fighting . “Sometimes it’s good but in boxing terms rarely would you change your whole team two months out of a fight, especially when you’ve worked for years with a tried and tested team who have only led you to victory.

“I think its a very unnecessary risk and an element that has led me to believe Wilder will be victorious.”

Running order

:

Fury has dismissed Wilder as a “one-trick pony” ahead of their rematch.

“There’s no stress about his power going into the fight,” he said. “I’ve been 16 rounds with him, out-boxed him quite comfortably, took his best shots, got up, fired back at him.

“The one who should be concerned is Deontay Wilder because he is a one-trick pony.

“He’s a knockout artist, but he knocked me down twice in two rounds, nine and . And he had over two minutes in each round to finish me and he couldn’t finish me.

“It was like on (video game) Mortal Kombat. They said ‘finish him!’, And then he couldn’t finish me.

“He’s the one who should be concerned. He’s landed the two best punches that any heavyweight in the world could ever land on somebody else, and the Gypsy King rose like a phoenix from the ashes back to my feet and hurt him at the end of the round.

“So yeah, it’s going to be pretty difficult for Wilder, not me. This is heavyweight boxing. I’ve been hit, I’ve been hurt, I’ve been put down in my career, but it’s not about when we get put down, it’s what happens when we get back up and keep moving forward. ”
