TYSON FURY summoned the strength to get up off the canvas because he could see Deontay Wilder celebrating.
The Gypsy King revealed he was like a “phoenix rising from the ashes” in the final round after he was knocked down by the WBC heavyweight champ.
Wilder was so confident his punch was enough to win the fight he mocked his British rival by producing a throat-slitting gesture.
Fury not only got up but stayed on his feet for the remaining two minutes before their sensational title clash in Los Angeles was controversially judged a draw.
He said: “It must have been a divine intervention. I saw the replay this morning and I looked to be unconscious on the canvas and just woke up.
“I was perfectly healthy and my legs were strong. I don’t know how that was even possible but I was like a phoenix rising from the ashes. I could see Wilder celebrating.”
Despite the draw Fury is now the one who is about to do some celebrating.
The Gypsy King spent nine weeks away from pregnant wife, Paris, and his young family, and fears youngest daughter Valencia Amber might fail to recognise all 6ft 9in of him.
The 30-year-old traveller added: “I’m just going to enjoy myself really, enjoy my family, my friends and my time off while I’ve got it because I’m back in training soon.
“I probably won’t go on a caravan holiday this time of year but I might take the gypsy wagon out.”
Fury’s performance in the early rounds wowed many fight fans and his resilience to rise from devastating shots in rounds nine and 12 amazed casual viewers.
The internet is swamped with memes and GIFs comparing the Manchester-based fighter with WWE legend The Undertaker and it all adds to his reputation.
Fury said: “The fight made a massive impact on America. Everybody there has heard the story of Tyson Fury, they’ve heard about the legend but now they’ve seen him.
“It was a treat for the fans to see two unbeaten world champions going toe-to-toe at each other.
“I could become a big US star, yes. I’ve got the engaging personality.

“Even when I was knocked down, I got straight back up and put my hands behind my back again. I am an entertainer.”
A few weeks after his stunning win against Wladimir Klitschko in 2015, Fury finished a measly fourth at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year awards.
After expressing offensive views about women, homosexuals and Jews, there was a protest about Fury’s place in the poll and he flopped in the votes.
But his stirring display, commitment to raising awareness around mental health struggles and the fact those in the know thought he had won have helped slash his odds of winning the 2018 gong to 9-2.
Fury, though, insisted: “The thing I do want to win is Comeback of the Year from Ring Magazine. I need that.”

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
