Heavyweight champion Tyson Fury recalled a time when he couldn't run half a mile after battling with Covid-19 symptoms before his trilogy against Deontay Wilder.
Fury was originally scheduled to fight Wilder for the third time last July, but the trilogy was cancelled after an outbreak of Covid in Fury's camp less than two weeks before the fight. The heavyweight world title clash was rescheduled for October but Fury's training camp didn't go any easier as he still battled the effects of Covid.
To make matters even worse for the Brit, his newborn daugher Athena was fighting for her life after being rushed in and out of intensive care. Fury detailed his nightmare training camp for the fight during a recent public speaking event.
