Fury chasing knockout in Wilder rematch

Tyson Fury vowed to chase a knockout in next month's eagerly anticipated rematch with WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder, insisting he believes he has no chance of earning a victory on points in Las Vegas.

The charismatic undefeated British fighter faces the unbeaten Wilder at the MGM Grand on February 22, after the two men battled to a draw in Los Angeles in December 2018.

Fury (29-0-1, 20 knockouts) earned a share of the spoils in the first fight after frustrating Wilder with a superbly elusive performance.

However the self-styled "Gypsy King" survived a 12th round knockdown to cling on for the draw at the Staples Center.

At a press conference in Los Angeles on Monday, Fury said he plans to attack Wilder early on in next month's bout, insisting he is targeting a second-round knockout.

"Thinking ain't enough," the 31-year-old Fury said.

"I need to know I've won the fight. I know I need to get a knockout here. I'm going into this fight knowing I can't win a decision. I've got to knock him out."
"That's why I hired Sugarhill. He gets you to sit down on that big right hand. That's what I'm looking for. There's the game plan."
- No 'Herky-jerky style' -
==========================
"He's saying those things, I don't feel in his energy that he believes that. I feel like he's nervous because of what happened the first time."
"I just learned from the first fight I need to be calmer."
