Former Heavyweight champion Tyson Fury wants a "brutal knockout" over Arslanbek Makhmudov to prove he is back to his best.

After retiring for a year following his second defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, Fury is returning to boxing against Makhmudov at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this Sunday.

He based himself in Thailand for the bulk of his training camp for this fight and is adamant he will be revitalised for his comeback.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Fury says he wants a brutal knockout against Makhmudov and that it is going to be fun.

Fury insists his time out of boxing has fuelled his motivation further.

He says 16 months out of the ring makes him even fonder of the sport.

Fury will take on Makhmudov at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London this Sunday.
