Boxer Tyson Fury has said that when he finally gets in the ring with David Haye, he would be brutal with him, making him pay for the delay he caused after pulling out of their fight due to a sparring cut.
According to the Daily Star, the heavyweight pair was due to fight at Manchester Arena on Saturday but the contest will now take place at the same venue on February 8.
He said that he totally disbelieves the injury situation and thinks that there was another angle to why Haye got the fight postponed, adding that when he beats Haye, it could be his opponent's last fight.
However, two-time world champion Haye, 32, used Twitter to confirm the new fight date and mockingly referred to his opponent as 'Dyson Furry", the report said.
He thanked fans for their kind words of support in trying times, adding that his low spirits had been taken care of by the good vibes.
Meanwhile, Fury said that he was the guy who could carry the torch for British boxing and Haye was sparring and getting cut just a week before the two were to meet.
