British heavyweight Tyson Fury is really beaming, as the huge boxer is less than a week away before he makes his Las Vegas debut.
Fury will face undefeated Tom Schwarz (24-0) on June 15th at the MGM Grand.
"He is hungry and ambitious, and I am sure he will come for a war," Fury said. "He is not ill-preparing for this and turning up for a pay check. He is turning up to take the lineal championship of the world. It will be an epic fight - it's Las Vegas, it's showtime and I will look to put on an explosive performance in the States."
Fury, 30, returns for the first time since fighting to a controversial twelve round split draw with WBC world champion Deontay Wilder.
The Schwarz fight will be his first under a lucrative multi-fight co-promotional deal with Top Rank and ESPN.
"I really love my job at the minute, more than I have ever done before. I used to think boxing was a chore, a job to go to," Fury said.
"I trained hard for a fight and then put a ton of weight back on. Now I enjoy what I do, keep fit even when I am not boxing. I almost live my life as a routine training camp now."
Fury has been waiting to fight in Las Vegas for a very long time.
Since he was a young amateur, Fury has always wanted to fight in Las Vegas.
"It's been a long time coming," said Fury. "I have never been to Vegas. The big fights happen in Vegas. I remember waking up to watch Ricky Hatton and Floyd Mayweather [in 2007] at the MGM. A lot of iconic fights have been there so for me to put my name down on that list is another tick off the list.
"I made a promise to myself when I was younger I wouldn't go to Vegas until I fought there. Thirty years later I get the opportunity to fight on the biggest platform in the world."
