Tyson Fury’s trainer, Peter Fury, has confirmed to WBN that his nephew fully intends to honor his initial agreement with two-weight world champion David Haye.
That’s despite the Londoner stating that a change of heart may incur.
Haye, 32, took visible pleasure in posting his Instagram video today as the former WBA title holder signed his portion of the deal. He couldn’t resist another dig at his rival, stating that Fury may now switch his attention to double David Price conqueror Tony Thompson.
Peter Fury talks to WBN on Fury vs Haye
“I am sure David Haye can rest in peace knowing that Tyson will be signing this contract,” Fury told World Boxing News.
“We are not in the business of doing deals and then talking to others or reneging on our word. We are only waiting for a document from Adam Booth’s side, and as soon as we get it and it’s good, then we’re good to go for this fight.”
Undefeated Fury, who has an impressive 21-0 record with 15 stoppages, had stated just last week that he is entirely on board with a 50/50 split for the potential PPV blockbuster, despite a tongue-in-cheek remark that he wanted an 80% piece of the pie.
All should be final for the September match-up imminently, and fight fans can begin to look forward to the most significant UK heavyweight match-up in a generation.
