“I’m really excited about my future plans, as I’m doing things differently and currently training like a Trojan in pursuit of becoming heavyweight champion of the world.”

As a fan, I like watching fighters rather than boxers.

I think I need a psychiatrist because I do believe I am mentally disturbed in some way.

I’ve sparred with lots of people and played around with everybody.

What personality does it take to drive a car around a track 100 times or hit a ball back and forth. That’s not very personality is it?

Although there’s been a fighter before me called Mike Tyson, I’m my own Tyson. I’m Tyson Fury. I ain’t trying to be anybody else.

I have a nice house, nice cars, nice watches, nice things. I’ve got money in the bank. I’m not in need of a few quid – as it stands. It’s all irrelevant to me.

As you know, I get a lot of abuse on Twitter. And while I’m abroad on training camp, I train three times a day, often for two hours a time, and I haven’t got time to respond to all the people that ask questions.

I’m looking forward to fighting Chisora, getting him out of the way, and then fighting Klitschko for all the belts, but I don’t think Wladimir is going to take the fight.

There are 7 billion people in the world, but there’s only one heavyweight champion of the world, and that’s me.

I already know what boxers do; I’ve been in it all my life. I know what they do, and I know how they prepare.

I’ve not been paid millions of pounds for any fights. I’ve not made any money out of boxing.

I’m a unique fighter – one of a kind.

I just need to count the rounds and count me money afterwards.

I’m a fighting man, a fighting man with generations of fighting men before me in my family. That’s all we do: we fight.

I do like going to the movies, but I like eating tons of sweets and ice cream, so I can’t go to the movies anymore.

Racism is a sign of ignorance, in my opinion. It’s people who haven’t been anywhere, haven’t seen the world.

The speed is something dangerous but very exciting.

The fire and excitement may be gone now that we don’t go out there and sing them anymore, but the ring of fire still burns around you and I, keeping our love hotter than a pepper sprout.

The more I learn, the more excited I get.

Was there anything more exciting in life than seeking answers?

I was more excited than scared, at the opportunity to work in an English movie.

The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not ‘Eureka!’ but ‘That’s funny.’

I don’t just go out there and run. I like to give people watching something exciting.

The larger the audience the better. The more pockets in the world, the more interesting and exciting because it just makes it that much more liberating. This makes it that much more liberating for the various facets of creativity to be explored.
