And Fury, speaking at a press conference, has revealed his father has joined him in camp prior to the bout.

"Yeah, I'm training hard obviously," he said.

"I'm in fantastic shape, obviously. And I've got a massive fight coming up, obviously.

"There's no room for error, no room for any problems.

"40 days out, feeling fantastic and I know all boxers say the same like 'oh s**t I'm having a fantastic training camp yada yada yada.'

"But I actually am having a fantastic training camp. I've got a good team around me, no complaints.

"I'm working very hard, got my dad in camp this time, got my secret weapon with me this time as well.

"I've got Ty Mitchell in, I've got all the boys, all the girls are in camp.

"We've got a full circus camp. Can't do anything more really."

Fury was also asked about his eye injury that forced his fight with Usyk to be delayed.

The two men had been due to face off in February. However, after the Briton sustained a serious cut above his eye, their fight was pushed back.

Fury admits that he was 'depressed' at first when the showdown was delayed until May.

However, the Gypsy King insists it simply wasn't meant to be - while insisting next month's fight will go ahead as planned.

"At first I was a little bit depressed for the first day or so," he said.

"But afterwards, like all things in life, God's timing is impeccable, perfect.
