[oscar9992]

It was 2010 when Fury was in Klitschko's training camp. They could spar together but Emanuel Steward didn't let it happen.

He said that Fury is gonna be champ in near future! It was in 2010!

Emanuel Steward ''Tyson Fury will be the next superstar, dominant heavyweight''

2011:

Emanuel Steward: ''Tyson Fury will be the next superstar, dominant heavyweight''



Emanuel Steward: ""Tyson Fury has the ability and in my expectations - the next superstar dominant heavyweight and in much along the lines of Lennox Lewis and Wladimir Klitschko. With the way that he's progressing now, I believe that he can be the complete package for the heavyweight division. His talent, a good looking guy and a very colorful personality. I think he can be a tremendous shot in the arm for the heavyweight division in the future"

Then last year Fury packed a bag and decided to go to America in search of the famous Kronk gym founder and trainer of some of the best fighters to grace a ring, including Thomas Hearns, Dennis Andreas and British heavyweight legend Lennox Lewis.

Fury searched around for Steward in Detroit and put the word out that he was looking for the trainer.

Speaking on the Main Event Radio Show Steward picks up the story.

“Tyson came to Detroit unexpected looking for me.” said Steward.

“I was out having dinner one day and the phone rang, they said there’s a big tall guy down at the gym looking for you called Tyson Fury, I said What!
“He had jumped on as plane, then after riding all over the city he eventually found the gym, because it wasn’t where it used to be.

“He was meant to stay here for a week, but ended up staying three weeks at my home with me. We watched nothing but fight films and he asked lots of questions.

“Ive been very impressed with him, I didn’t know he had so much natural talent and agility for a big man and when I went to train Wladimir (Klitschko) he asked if he could come to the camp, I said sure.

“So he was over there at the camp (Germany) and I can actually say he trained harder than anyone else at the camp. He ran every single day when no one else was running and he lost I think 25lbs.

The opponent he fought last, nobody wanted to fight him and it was switched at the last minute, but he went eight rounds, but he could have gone twelve rounds and he was very relaxed. He is going to fight regular now, hopefully once a month and Hennesy Sports is gonna keep him busy.”

“I said to Wladimir in training, I said you see that guy, he is going to be the next super dominant heavyweight after you, he said yeah! I said yeah. Ive had Lennox on a nine year run, I’m gonna have you looks like nine years and that’s gonna be my next super heavyweight.” Steward added.

Really cool story about Tyson getting a flight over and searching around the city for the Gym.

Also, shows what kind of man Steward was. Letting a stranger turn up and stay at his house for 3 weeks.

I think Wlad was looking for shorter sparring partners at the time.

Hey oscar, i thought Klitschko would KO Fury with one hand tied behind his back? What happened? Never doubt the Furious One.

Wlad looks like Herman Munster in this photo. Proper square noggin.

World Champions breath in that rarefied air. Walking into their gym and being granted a sparring session isn't going to happen.

Walking into their sauna and gaining a 'mental victory' however is within the realms of possibility!

Emanuel Steward knew Fury was the next champ...

[Weltschmerz]

Steward was right, and Vlad missed him Sat night.

Wilder doesn't have the boxing ability to beat Fury . Wilder is a guy who has height and just swing his right hand like a tough man contestant and with those b limited boxing skills it's not enough to beat Fury
