Gypsy King is gearing up for his blockbuster WBC heavyweight fight against Wilder with an intense training regime
TYSON FURY has started a fierce training regime ahead of his world heavyweight title fight against Deontay Wilder on December 1.
Fury, 30, has travelled over 5,400 miles to train at The Summit - a gym located in Big Bear, California, to get ready for his showdown with the undefeated WBC champ.
The Gym is located next to Big Bear Lake - a popular training base for fighters as it is 7,000 feet above sea level and is hidden away in a quiet area.
Athletes train at high altitude to produce more of the hormone erythromycin (EPO) - which delivers more red blood cells to aid oxygen delivery to the muscles.
It was designed and built by Gennady Golovkin's trainer Abel Sanchez for former heavyweight British heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis and Hall of Fame trainer Emanuel Stewart.
Fury has set his sights on becoming the “heavyweight king again.”
He said: "This is the year of wake up and smell the competition.
"Tyson Fury’s back and all you motherf****** are under attack, ain’t no stopping me now.
"Three years out the ring and I’m yet to be the world heavyweight king again."
Fury hasn’t fought in a world title bout since he dethroned Wladimir Klitschko back in 2015 in Düsseldorf, Germany, to become the undisputed heavyweight champion.
In the Instagram post, Fury said Wilder is his for the taking.
He wrote: "If you had 1 shot 1 opportunity to get everything you ever wanted would you take it or let it slip?
" is standing in my way of greatness. I WILL TAKE HIM! HE IS MINE FOR THE TAKING!"
Hall of Fame promoter Frank Warren also tweeted a video of Fury enjoying his preparation for the much-awaited fight.
Both boxers are putting their undefeated records on the line with this clash, with Wilder boasting a 40-0 victory record compared to Fury's 27-0.
Deontay Wilder will fight Tyson Fury at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.
