Tyson Fury says he is feeling like a hungry lion with some prey to feed on ahead of his WBC title rematch tomorrow with Deontay Wilder. 

Fury has weighed in at 123.8 kilograms while Wilder has weighed in at 104.7 kilograms ahead of their WBC title rematch  tomorrow.

There was no face-off between the two boxers as both their teams made sure there no contact between the two. 

This is after the commission sanctioning the bout ordered for the faceoff to be scrapped because they do not want any injury or incident that could lead to a postponement and see organisers lose out on millions of dollars.

Speaking to CNN after the weigh-in, Fury says he is not making any excuses for how the last fight ended up in a draw, but this time he knows that he will knock out Wilder.

Fury will take on the Wilder for the WBC Heavyweight title rematch tomorrow and the boxing program is expected to start at 2pm
