'Furious' Tyson Fury throws table, abuses Dereck Chisora at press conference

British heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury had reportedly tipped over a table and screamed expletives at Dereck Chisora in a furious show of anger before storming out of a news conference ahead of his world heavyweight title eliminator against his fellow Brit.

The pair, who will meet in an all-British fight on July 26 for the right to challenge Wladimir Klitschko for his IBF, WBA and WBO belts, met previously at Wembley in 2011 when Fury won a points decision to claim the British and Commonwealth titles.

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Fury was sitting alongside Chisora at a media event in Manchester when he suddenly exploded, screaming that he is Tyson Fury-'the best heavyweight on the planet', and that he is 'sick to death of this'.

Abusing Chisora, Fury called him an 'idiot 'and 'motherf*****', saying that Chisora is getting 'knocked out' and is 'going to sleep', before flipping up the table that had glasses on it and leaving the room.

Chisora applauded Fury sarcastically before saying that his fellow Brit should be awarded a Golden Globe for his theatrics as he needs to get a bit of publicity, adding that Fury needs people to talk about him.

Chisora, who also has a reputation for poor behaviour out of the ring, credits anger management sessions for the way he dealt with Fury's antics and said that although he is more of a gangster than a boxer, he is now a professional athlete.
