Watch Tyson Fury link up with hero cutman Jorge Capetillo after flying out to Las Vegas for Anthony Joshua training camp

The hero cutman was delighted to welcome Fury back to Vegas

Fury will link up with American head trainer SugarHill Steward after staying fighting fit at the gym he built at his Morecambe home.

Heading to his US promoter’s Top Rank private gym, local trainer Capetillo was there to give him a warm welcome.

The excited Mexican uploaded footage to social media focusing the camera on Fury before shouting ‘I’m so blessed today, look who’s back!.’

The video then showed Capetillo putting Fury through his paces inside the ring.

Capetillo was Fury’s heroic cutman when he endured a major scare against Otto Wallin in September 2019.

The Swede inflicted a huge cut above Fury’s right eye which required a whopping 47 stitches.

Fury would later repay Capetillo by sending him money during the coronavirus pandemic.

Earlier this month, Fury revealed how he feels at ‘home’ in Vegas and plans to end his career there.

He said: “My home city is Vegas. I’ve had my last three fights there.

“My last four fights have been California, Staples Center, MGM Grand Garden Arena, T-Mobile Arena, MGM, they’ve all been over there.

“So I intend to stay there and end my career over there.”

A venue to take on Joshua has yet to be announced although one is expected to be announced on Tuesday… or Fury will walk away.

The undefeated WBC heavyweight champion declared: “I have been told there are a few good offers on the table, from a few different countries, from some very rich people, so I am confident.

“Saudi is involved, I will say that much, but there are also some dark horses involved who have offered some serious money.

“I am one million per cent sure it will happen and we’ll know where and when.

“We both want it and we will give each other a good hiding and lay it all on the line.

“It is exciting for me because I have always been quite sceptical about it all.”
