Fury and Schwartz at the media training

On Saturday in Las Vegas the former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (27-0-1, 19 KOs) will have this year's first fight. The Englishman's opponent in the US will be Tom Schwartz (24-0, 16 KOs) of Germany. For the undefeated boxer from Manchester, who is considered as a "linear" world champion, this will be the first bout after signing a contract with promotional company Top Rank, and the TV channel ESPN. In his last professional performance Fury battled to a draw with Deontay Wilder.

On the eve of their fight Fury and Schwartz conducted an open training session.
