Wladimir Klitschko, the heavyweight champion of the world, is putting four belts on the line vs. Tyson Fury Saturday night in Germany. He may not be stepping into the ring with a man who is sane.
Fury (24-0, 18 KO) said that while he does not use steroids, and he offered his “jelly” body as proof, he’s all for the legalization of all performance-enhancing drugs in sports. In Fury’s mind, that would even the playing field.

"Why don't they just make drugs totally legal in sports, then everybody would be taking drugs then it would be fully fair then wouldn't it?" Fury said to ESPN. He said the “Greek god” bodies all over sports are evidence that PED abuse is rampant.
"I know because I've trained all my life, I'm fighting for the heavyweight championship of the world. But my body is like jelly, it's a natural body you see. I would say boxing's got a big problem with drugs. It doesn't bother me because at the end of the day it's determination over drugs any time."

Fury has a reputation as a big talker, but so far in his career he’s backed it up. Fury is considered one of the most formidable challengers of Klitschko’s storied career, even though his conquests are lacking in star power. The biggest names on Fury’s resume are Dereck Chisora (stopped in Round 10) and Steve Cunningham (KO Round 7). Fury has won his last four fights by knockout or stoppage.
Fury is also notable for building up the Klitschko fight by pretending to be Batman.
