Tyson Fury: 'A fight against David Haye would be the biggest in Britain'

Tyson Fury has claimed that a fight between him and David Haye would be the biggest that Britain has ever seen.

The heavyweight contender claimed earlier this month that a fight against Haye was "99.9% done" before launching a Twitter rant towards the former WBA champion yesterday.

Haye admitted that a fight against Fury "would be fun", and Fury told Sky Sports today, that it is the only fight that he wants.

"It's the only fight that would ever make sense to Tyson Fury right now," Sky Sports News quotes Fury as saying.

"If this fight does happen then I think this fight will be the biggest fight ever to enter a British boxing ring. The British fight fans and the British public are in for a real, real treat.

"As far as I'm concerned I'm the number one heavyweight in the UK. David Haye is a pretender and a celebrity who likes to live a celebrity's lifestyle. It's a man who has had two fights in two years against a man who has had lots of fights in two years."

Fury is currently unbeaten in his 21 fights, with 15 wins coming by way of knockout.
