LONDON — World heavyweight champion Tyson Fury says money is his only motivation heading into his rematch with Wladimir Klitschko.
The British boxer beat Klitschko by a unanimous decision in November to take the WBA, IBF and WBO belts and end the Ukrainian’s nine-year reign as champion. Fury has since been stripped of the IBF belt.
Fury said on Wednesday, “I’ve already beaten the best man there is and was. I have no motivation. Whoever they put in front of me I’ll fight, but they’ve got nothing that I want … only money.”
The rematch will take place in Manchester on July 9.
Fury said Klitschko “couldn’t beat me with his ‘A’ game, so he’s not going to beat me second time round … I told the world he was no good.”
