Tyson Fury claimed on Monday that Wladimir Klitschko’s camp was full of cheaters. He says he refused to accept any water after their world heavyweight title fight with the fear of not passing a drug test, insisting that Klitschko’s camp would try to drug him.
Fury claims that he had good sources that warned him of the alleged dangers, according to Yahoo.
“I had good information off good resources not to touch anything in the changing rooms because they might try and drug you.”
He would add, “I went home dehydrated before I even touched anything. I was so frightened of being drug-tested and failing the drugs test.”
Fury also claimed that his opposition intentionally had his weight listed incorrectly, as he was listed at 116 kilograms as opposed to 113.
He also claims that he had to wear gloves that did not fit him during the fight. That’s pretty decent, considering Fury is the one who won the fight.
Eventually, Fury stopped beating around the bush and simply said what he thought – that Kiltschko and his camp were cheaters.
”They are cheats, they are extremely good at cheating,” Fury said, who won the WBA, IBF and WBO belts after a unanimous points decision.
”There were all these little things they thought might affect me, as it has with fighters in the past. But not one of them did.”
The two fighters are expected to fight each other again in May at Wembley Stadium in London. Fury’s uncle and trainer Peter said the news could come in January as to when the next fight will be.
