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 bout since his rematch loss to Oleksandr Usyk in 2024, following a brief retirement. Fury, now 37, weighed in at 267.9lbs, a significant drop from the 281lbs he recorded for his Usyk rematch. In a recent interview with Netflix, Fury acknowledged the challenges that come with 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. Makhmudov, a seasoned heavyweight contender with a formidable knockout ratio, weighed in at 264.9lbs and expressed his readiness to make his dream a reality. The event also features Conor Benn's return to the ring, as he faces Regis Prograis, and Richard Riakporhe's British heavyweight title fight against Jeamie 'TKV' Tshikeva.
