Tyson Fury reveals major trainer revelation that Lennox Lewis disagrees with

Trainers are very important for boxers. They help set the strategy for a fight and are the second pair of eyes when the bout is taking place. 

For Tyson Fury, heading into his return to the ring appears to be going at it alone versus Arslanbek Makhmudov on April 11. 

After the press conference, the former WBC and lineal heavyweight champion told Lennox Lewis he's not going to have a trainer on fight night in London.

"I might Clubber Lang. Train alone," Fury said. "I'm going to train alone. 

"I know how to do it. I know how to go 12 rounds. I know how to push myself when I need to. I know when to take a rest when I need to."

When Fury was next to him, Lewis seemed to agree with his fellow Brit. However, when Fury left the area, Lewis' tune changed. 

"Yeah, I don't think so about being solo," Lewis said.

"There will be a trainer. Just right now, I think he's getting everything together. But there will be a trainer. No boxer has ever stepped into the ring without a trainer.

"They need somebody to remind them of what to do. For him, everybody, it doesn't matter how good you are; you need somebody to remind you to keep your hands up. 

"When he says he's going to go in there with nobody, he's probably going to have his dad (John Fury) in his corner."
