Fury Weighs in Lighter for Makhmudov Showdown

Tyson Fury and Arslanbek Makhmudov stepped onto the scales prior to their highly anticipated heavyweight bout at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. This marks Fury's first fight since his rematch loss to Oleksandr Usyk in late 2024, following a brief retirement. Now, at 37 years old, his conditioning and form will be under close scrutiny. Fury tipped the scales at 267.9lbs, a decrease from the 281lbs he weighed for his Usyk rematch, albeit with clothes on. Makhmudov, a seasoned heavyweight contender with a knockout ratio exceeding 90%, looked formidable at 264.9lbs. Fury expressed his determination, stating, 'My priority is to beat this guy, and then I've got the other big man next.' Makhmudov, meanwhile, is ready to make his story happen, saying, 'It's my dream, my time.' The event also features Conor Benn, who weighed in at 149.5lbs for his catchweight fight against Regis Prograis, and Richard Riakporhe, who faces Jeamie 'TKV' Tshikeva for the British heavyweight title.
