Fury Weighs in Lighter for Makhmudov Showdown

Tyson Fury and Arslanbek Makhmudov stepped onto the scales ahead of their highly anticipated heavyweight bout 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 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 another big man lined up.' Makhmudov, meanwhile, remained focused, saying, 'I'm ready to go; I'm eager to make my story happen, make my dream a reality.' The event also features Conor Benn, who weighed in at 149.5lbs for his catchweight bout against Regis Prograis, who came in at 148.1lbs. Benn is excited to face an opponent of similar size, while Prograis believes his experience as a two-time world champion gives him an edge. Other notable weigh-ins include Richard Riakporhe at 234.12lbs for his British heavyweight title fight against Jeamie 'TKV' Tshikeva, and Frazer Clarke at 259.12lbs as he takes on Justis Huni.
