Watch: Tyson Fury sent a motivational message to the Antrim footballers, and it seemed to work

"How much do you really want it, County Antrim?"

Tyson Fury has proved to be a good luck charm for Antrim. The heavyweight boxing champion wished the county's footballers luck in their Division 4 game against Wicklow with a special motivational video. Brian Magee, the former world middleweight champion, who now works as a strength and conditioning coach for Antrim, arranged for the video, in which Fury cites his shock defeat of Wladimir Klitschko as a source of inspiration for the footballers in their promotion push.

"Nothing's given to you, like I say. You've got to go there and take it. How much do you really want it, County Antrim? Go there, do the business and get home."
