Fury: “Let’s put it this way – he’s not here to fight David Price. I’m a fighting man.

“So we’ll see.

“He’s tough and durable. These are the fights I want.

“I have learned the hard way and that’s the way I want it.

“If the knockout comes, it comes.”

Hammer: “He’s from the Fury family but he’s not Tyson. He’s a young guy.

“I will try to break him.

“I hope he doesn’t only run. I am here to fight.

“I want a fight, not a marathon.”
