Tyson Fury’s promoter Frank Warren has expressed his disappointment at the Gypsy King parting ways with trainer Ben Davison. Fury is set to fight Deontay Wilder for the WBC heavyweight world title this weekend.
Fury and Davison had been together throughout the former’s comeback to the sport.
Many had been impressed with the way in which Davison handled himself in Fury’s corner for the first fight with Wilder, given he was only 26 at the time.
But a couple of months before their rematch this weekend, Fury parted ways with Davison and hired Kronk Gym’s SugarHill Steward.
And while promoter Warren is happy with SugarHill and Fury’s new setup, he can’t help but feel disappointment about the dismissal of Davison.
“I have full confidence in Fury’s new setup. Let’s get it right, when he appointed Ben, everyone said ‘who is Ben Davison?’” he told VegasInsider.
“But he’s a scholar of boxing, he’s very astute and knows the sport very well. At the time it was the best thing for him.
