This is the bold prediction Tyson Fury’s coach made nearly 10 years ago (Video)

Few people will have predicted the outcome of the Tyson Fury fight or at least the manner in which he was to beat reigning champion Wladimir Klitschko.

The 27-year-old Brit overcame the weight of history, overturned the bookies' odds and defied the Ukrainian's decade-long stranglehold on the heavyweight division to secure a memorable unanimous victory in Germany. While thousands of fans were amazed at the emphatic nature of Fury's win, there was probably one boxing coach who was feeling a wee bit smug. Steve Egan was one of the people that saw it coming - and he saw it coming a mile off. When 10 years off, to be precise. Egan made a bold prediction about his young charge back in the days he was just a promising amateur in 2006. When his fighter was just an up-and-coming teenager Egan set out what Fury's CV might look like and it included this prediction: "2016: Undisputed heavyweight champion of the world. You will be. By that time you will be. It's just about being patient." If we're being picky he was about a month out, but it's pretty impressive. The whole video makes for interesting viewing, but skip to 5:08 if you're just after the predictions. https://youtu.be/8mqsRyaRnpY Clip via British Boxers
