Fury Weighs in Lighter for Makhmudov Fight
Tyson Fury and Arslanbek Makhmudov stepped onto the scales ahead of their highly anticipated heavyweight clash at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. This marks Fury's first fight since his loss to Oleksandr Usyk in 2024, following a brief retirement. Now, at 37, his conditioning and form are under scrutiny. Fury tipped the scales at 267.9lbs, a decrease from the 281lbs he weighed for his Usyk rematch. In a recent interview with Netflix, Fury acknowledged the challenges of training at an advanced age, saying, 'It gets a little bit harder each time in camp... Getting older, more injury prone, Father Time waits for nobody.' Despite this, Fury remains focused on his priority: defeating Makhmudov and reclaiming his titles. Makhmudov, a seasoned contender with a formidable knockout ratio, weighed in at 264.9lbs and expressed his eagerness to make his story happen.
