New Zealand junior heavyweights with WBC American champion Deontay Wilder.
The New Zealand junior heavyweight boxer Fa has felt the power of Deontay Wilder and thinks it will eventually prove too much for Tyson Fury in the fight for the world title this weekend.
Fa has just returned from the United States after four weeks of camp with Wilder, as a thrifty partner of the WBC champion defending his title against Fury, the former champion and colorful British, in Los Angeles on Sunday (NZT) .
"In terms of power, it hits hard," says Fa about Wilder.
"I did not hang out to be touched … I think I did the best imitation of Tyson Fury that I could and I hope it will go for Deontay on Sunday.

"It will be a hard fight and quite awkward.The two fighters are big enough.They both like to fight in the background.You will need an instigator and I'm not sure who will come forward. first."
"But I choose Wilder for it to end the fight." I do not know when, but I feel like he's going to find a way and that's where he's going. 39 will definitely take you away [Fury] outside."
Fa, 29, 15-0 and ranked No. 10 with the WBO as the East Champion, will then face Rogelio Omar Rossi against the underlying card of Joseph Parker's fight against Alexander Flores in Christchurch on Dec. 15.
Fa is sparkling action, feeling in top form after a month with Wilder whom he described as "very professional" and surrounded by a great team.
Fa played three or four times a day with Wilder, being rotated as one of three training partners.

Junior Fa is active after a month of camp with WBC World Champion Deontay Wilder.
"It did a lot of good for my confidence, knowing that if I could stay with him, I'm pretty sure I could get by with the other big pros in the division," said fa.
"But the best thing I came out of the camp was not physical, it was to see how he was thinking, how he handled the pressure with hours of TV interviews and then to train.
"Just to be in this environment with him and see how he handles things mentally.It was a good thing to see with his own eyes and I pulled a lot of things out of it."

British heavyweight Tyson Fury says he could beat his American rival Deontay Wilder from one hand.
Fa is now looking to complete his home preparations for a fight in which he wants to shine after some mediocre efforts this year.
The main reason is poor health, as F struggled against a blood disease characterized by low iron and hemoglobin levels that continually fatigued him.
He finally addressed the issue, although it was a difficult lesson for him.
"Things are going well and I feel a lot better for a long time I guess I've learned to open my mouth better, it's not a good thing to fight and keep things to yourself." It's a macho thing to do, but it's definitely the wrong thing to do.Now, if I know something is wrong with my body, I'll speak louder. "

Fa continues to argue with Parker, with whom he shares a 2-2 amateur record.
He concedes that he "will definitely need some nice fights", but thinks it's a fight that will unfold.
Parker promoter David Higgins of Duco Events sees potential in the fight but believes Fa still has work to do.
"Like Tua-Cameron, everyone loves the local contest," Higgins said.
"I think if Junior can string together stronger wins, he's warming up over time – it's really up to him to show if he can grow and become more skilled and more formidable." Media will wonder that this test is coming to see who is the best of both.
"So yeah, I can see it happening, maybe a few years later."
