Tyson Fury Fires Back at Critics Over His Weight

Tyson Fury has responded to criticism about his weight, saying he will be "fast and agile" after shedding over a stone in preparation for his highly anticipated return to boxing. Fury, who announced his comeback this month, has been sharing regular training updates on social media. However, some online critics have questioned his physical shape, prompting the former world heavyweight champion to hit back. "I've always been this way, and it's never made a difference before," Fury said. "I've beaten everyone with a bit of a belly, so why should it be any different now?" Fury, who currently weighs around 20 stone, plans to get down to under 19 stone for his comeback. He's looking forward to his return, saying, "I've been out for a while, but I'm back now, and I'm eager to see if I still have it." Fury's return to boxing comes nearly a year after his last retirement from the sport. He had announced his retirement after a points loss to Oleksandr Usyk but has now decided to make a comeback. Fury has been linked with a potential fight against Anthony Joshua, but Joshua's recent car accident may put those plans on hold. Fury may instead seek a trilogy fight against Usyk or a contest with Fabio Wardley, which could see him become a three-time world heavyweight champion.
