Skills set for the heavyweight Battle of Britain

Battle of Britain rematch rivals Tyson Fury and Dereck Chisora showed off their skills in the finishing touches to preparation for Saturday's fight night.

Chisora's European heavyweight title is on the line, along with the British crown, but WBO world eliminator status is arguably the biggest prize, writes Craig Birch.

Fury hasn't boxed for a global belt while Chisora was outpointed by Vitali Klitschko for the WBC strap in 2012, but he does holds an over-the-distance victory over 'Del Boy' the year before.

It was Chisora who was put through his paces first today in a purpose-built gym at the Mill Hill Music Complex in London, not far from his hometown and former amateur club, Finchley.

It was bombs away on the pads inside the ring with trainer Don Charles, before moving on to a skipping session with the cameras present.

Fury has set up the last of his training camp at the famed Peacock Boxing Club in Canning Town, a short distance from the Excel arena where the contest will take place.

The 6ft 9in beast from Manchester, from a travelling family, has grown a beard and took to calling himself 'the Gypsy Warrior' to intimidate his opponent.

He was in good humour as he completed a short session and exercise routine inside the ropes, mingling with members of the gym he temporarily calls home.

'Bad Blood' will culminate between the two on BoxNation this weekend. Subscribe through the channel's website, with no added pay-per-view charge.
