Wladimir Klitschko: 'Tyson Fury can become clown'

Heavyweight champion boxer Wladimir Klitschko suggests that Tyson Fury can become a clown in the Cirque du Soleil after losing their upcoming fight.

Heavyweight champion boxer Wladimir Klitschko has suggested that his challenger Tyson Fury can become a clown after losing their fight next month.

The Ukrainian - who currently holds five heavyweight titles - gave the Manchester-born boxer the career advice after Fury had worn a Batman costume and wrestled a man dressed as The Joker in a stunt earlier this afternoon.

"[Fury] said: 'well, if I'm gonna lose this fight - or when I'm gonna lose this fight against Klitschko - every person can give me a whip with a stick if I lose. If I lose the fight against Klitschko then I will not be in boxing anymore'," Klitschko told reporters at a press conference.

"I have a new job for you buddy. I've good friends in Cirque du Soleil, they can give a good job as a clown.

"Calling you a clown - or having a good future job at Cirque du Soleil after you're going to lose - is a compliment, because it's a really tough job to make people laugh."

Unbeaten Fury will challenge Klitschko for his WBA Super, IBF and WBO titles on Saturday, October 24.
