Sugarhill Steward, his coach, has revealed that TYSON FURY will be more than a stone heavier in his trilogy fight with Deontay Wester than he was during their rematch.
In the early hours Sunday morning, the Wythenshawe warrior will rekindle his rivalry against the American in Las Vegas.
Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder will renew their rivalry in Vegas this week
Fury, 33 years old, announced his plans to weigh in at 300 lbs for the fight during a June press conference.
Sugarhill says that Friday's 'crazy Gypsy King' will weigh in at 290lbs.
He said to Vegas Insider, "It's unlikely to be 300 pounds. It's probably going be like 290 or some such thing. But not 300."
"Heavier than the last time, by at least 20 pounds. Why not?
He's training with that weight. He's not just building muscle, he's also gaining weight.
"The larger the better, the more powerful."
BETTING SPECIAL GET 30/1 ON FURY OR 50/1 ON WILDER FOR HEAVYWEIGHT BOXING CLASHWBC king Fury performed a spectacular performance in his rematch against Wilder 19 months back, stopping Wilder in seven rounds.
The lineal heavyweight champion plans to put on an even better performance the third time around.
Fury stated that he gave his game plan away because he was not good enough to make any changes.
"And I'll do it the same way this time, because he's too weak to do anything about.
"Deontay Wilder has a one-trick pony. We all know that Deontay Wilder has one-punch power.
"But Deontay Wilder, this time I'm going run him over like an 18-wheeler and he is a human being.
"I guarantee that he doesn't go beyond where he was before [the seventh round].
"Because I had only five to six weeks to practice what I was going to do to him before.
"This time, I have had 18 months to practice what I want to do to him.
"So, I expect it to be like an 18 wheeler running over someone, and that's exactly what you're going to see.
"I am trying to gain weight, and try to reach 300 lbs for this fight.
"Because i'm looking for big knockouts right away."
Wilder, 35 years old, is determined to avenge his first professional loss in a devastating manner. He said: "My mind, very violent."
"We built a whole facility for legal homicide, and that's exactly what it is. My mind is very violent at the moment.
"I cannot wait, when you contemplate and pre-meditate about harming a male and you see that man, what you have been thinking and feeling will out.
"The only problem is that I must wait until I get into the ring to release it. I can't do this on the outside and it would defeat the purpose.
"The baby has to eat, but when it does get in the ring this is what I love, I can release all I've felt, all I've thought, and get paid for it."
