Tyson Fury says he has undergone the "hardest" - and the most extravagant - training camp of his career in order to prepare for his rematch with Dereck Chisora.

Fury revealed how he has been put through the motions ahead of Saturday's fight with Chisora at London's ExCel Arena.

"This is the hardest I've ever worked to get off all that weight, absolutely," Fury said. "We've been doing all sorts of extravagant things. Peter [Fury, trainer] has been having me carry him up the stairs every morning and every night as a training exercise.

"He's had me run around the park with him on my back so it's been a harsh training camp. I've also been wrestling with my brothers and my cousin, a lot of wrestling, pushing and shoving - so a lot of exercises and I'm definitely ready."

Undefeated Fury, who beat Chisora on points in their 2011 bout, knows there is more at stake this time around. The winner on Saturday is set to face WBO, IBF and WBA world champion Wladimir Klitschko for a shot at the WBO heavyweight title.

The rematch, originally set for last July, had to be delayed after Chisora suffered a fractured hand in training just days before the fight.
