Tyson Fury out-saunas the champ to win a psychological war

Stu's favorite sports story: at a training camp, underdog Tyson Fury refused to leave the sauna before champion Wladimir Klitschko, grabbing a newspaper and lying down as Klitschko kept turning up the heat, outlasting him until Klitschko cracked first, an early mind-game Fury used years later to take the title.

Wladimir Klitschko turns up the heat, sits back down. And so Tyson Fury says, I can't let this guy get in my head. Everyone thinks I can't beat him. I'm gonna get up too. He gets up, you know what he does? Turns it up, grabs a newspaper. He lays down and he grabs a newspaper, right? Right? Another 25 minutes go by, they're in legitimately as hot as the sauna can go, and Klitschko finally leaves. Tyson Fury wins.
