Boxer turns singer to calm pre-fight nerves

Boxer turns singer to calm pre-fight nerves

Tyson Fury faces the biggest fight of his life when he meets world heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko in Dusseldorf, but there is still time for some humour.

The British boxer was feeling the pre-fight nerves during a media conference on Tuesday but seemed to lose that when he dedicated a song to his opponent.

Fury sang “Wind Beneath My Wings” much to the amusement of the awaiting media.

Klitschko later admitted that Fury was a better singer than himself.

The duo meet for the WBA, IBF and WBO world heavyweight titles on the line.
