Tyson Fury’s hilarious response to question in Spanish ahead of Otto Wallin fight

Tyson Fury is set to face unbeaten southpaw Otto Wallin in Las Vegas on September 14. The WBC have a newly-started tradition to create special trinket belts and award them to fights taking place on the weekend of the two major Mexican holidays each year – Cinco De Mayo and Mexican Independence Day. The Gypsy King is set to compete for the WBC ‘Mayan’ belt. As a result, the heavyweight star has talked-up his desire to represent Mexico this weekend. During his press conference, a journalist decided to put him to the test by asking a question in Spanish. Having been asked a lengthy question which even bemused the translator, Fury offered a quick response. "Well yes, I am the Gypsy King, El Rey Gitano" he responded. "It is a privilege to be boxing on Mexican Independence weekend. I'm going to put on a fantastic show, and yes I do love big cuddly toys and crayons, thank you very much! And I do like being tickled, yes!"
