Tyson Fury admits he is being hit more than ever ahead of Derek Chisora fight

Tyson Fury has admitted he is being "hit more than ever" after adopting a more aggressive style ahead of his fight with Derek Chisora.

The 'Gypsy King' will defend his WBC heavyweight title against Chisora at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this Saturday night, and will go into the contest as the overwhelming favourite. Fury will look to beat 'WAR' for a third time having already conquered his British rival in 2011 and 2015.

Fury trains with American coach Sugar Hill Steward and has shown a much more aggressive and powerful style since working under his stewardship, earning stoppage wins over Deontay Wilder and Dillian Whyte. But the 34-year-old believes his opponents have found it a lot easier to hit him in his recent outings.
