Tyson Fury May Bulk Up For Oleksandr Usyk Rematch

On social media, the 36-year-old Fury posted a few images, one being the 262-lb model of himself towards Usyk and the opposite weighing 277 lbs for his trilogy match towards Deontay Wilder on October 9, 2021.

Fury is combating Usyk (22-0, 14 KOs), and he’s a much more proficient fighter than him. Furthermore, Usyk is lighter on his ft, faster, and extra agile. So, even when Fury does bulk as much as the excessive 270s, it’s not going to assist him towards Usyk. Quite the opposite, it’ll gradual Fury down, making him much more of a goal for Usyk’s punches than the final time they fought.

“Was within the form of my life, however this isn’t the Gypsy King,” stated Tyson Fury on social media in regards to the situation he was in for his battle towards Oleksandr Usyk earlier this yr on Might 18th.

“That is him, 19st 11-lbs bruiser,” Fury stated in regards to the 277 lbs that he weighed for his third battle towards Deontay Wilder.

Fury could be higher off coming in lighter for the rematch with Usyk slightly than heavier as a result of he’s going to want each little bit of pace he can get to forestall getting knocked out
