Tyson: Klitschko turned out as bad on me as Sefer

And he has faced Albanian boxer Sefer Sefer in June, securing victory.

Fury was criticised by fans because he held a match with a middleweight boxer aiming to move into the heavy-weight field.

But the American boxer in an interview for journalists has praised Sefer, considering him a good opponent.

He was tough, strong and a good opponent. That was before he fought Klitschko and Chagaev [Ruslan] for world titles, but I was impressed,”- He added.

“People say this is a big step from Sefer Sefer and they can say what they want, but Sefer went to the end of the duel against current world champion Manuel Charr. He went out against me, but it happened to a lot of people. To be honest, even Wladimir Klitschko turned out to be just as bad on me as Sefer. ”

Tyson will host his next match against Francesco Pianitas on August 18th in Belfast.
