FURY: I AM GREATEST IRISH WARRIOR SINCE CUCUHALIAN
TYSON Fury says he is coming to the Odyssey Arena to fight Martin Rogan on April 14 to prove that he is the rightful successor to the ultimate Irish warrior Cucuhalian.
The battle between Ireland’s two top heavyweights will be a memorable night and Fury, whose uncle lives just outside Belfast, says it will be a fight unlike any other ever seen in an Irish ring.
“Never before has a fight like this taken place on Irish soil between two proud heavyweight warriors who never say die – the fans know this is a once in a lifetime fight,” said Fury, who recently vacated the British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles so he could focus on “unfinished business” with Rogan.
Rogan has seen himself as the Irish king of the heavyweights but Fury says he will be the man wearing the crown on April 14.
“Then ultimate Irish warrior was Cucuhalian, everybody knows that. Now Rogan and I will decide who is the rightful heir to his throne and I have no doubt it will be me.
“The legend goes that Cucuhalian could stand single handed against an army and that his sword inflicted wounds from which you could never recover and Martin Rogan is going to feel pain that he has never felt before when I land my big shots.
“There’s a lot of pride on the line here, nobody is going to back down and it’s going to be an absolute war. Rogan thinks he is the king of the Irish but on April 14 he will realise that I am the true king.
“I’m sure Cucuhalian will be looking down on us that night, watching two 21st century warriors showing the same pride and desire for victory that he always showed.”
Fury is convinced that victory over Rogan on the Odyssey Arena stage will then set him on the path to European and World glory.
“I’ve won the British and Commonwealth titles but I always said that I wanted to prove I’m the best Irishman around before I tackle the European and World stage.”
