Bob Arum is confident in Tyson Fury

Bob Arum has full confidence in the physical and mental health of Tyson Fury (30-0-1, 21 KOs), who recently had to change his athletic plans twice. The "King of the Gypsies" was first forced to stop preparing for the fight against Anthony Joshua in order to start preparations for Deontay Wilder (42-1-1, 41 KOs), and later fell ill with the coronavirus and his fight with the Bronze Bomber was postponed from July 24 to October 9th.

“I'm not a psychiatrist, but I spent quite a lot of time with Fury after the arbitration [with Wilder] and the diagnosis, and I don't think he was hurt by any of that. In fact, he does not deceive me or himself,” Arum said in an interview with Sky Sports.

The promoter of the WBC heavyweight champion has assured that when his champion returns to the Las Vegas gym, every possible measure will be taken to prevent a repeat of the situation that took place a few weeks ago.

“We [in the Top Rank] are experts on [anticovid] bubbles. We made them before the NBA. The gym will be in a bubble, no one will get inside without the test. If the test is negative - come in, if it is positive - goodbye! The entire gym will be at the disposal of Tyson,” Bob Arum said.
