Tyson Fury is looking in very good shape
What do we think about this then?
Re: Tyson Fury is looking in very good shape
Good for him, good for boxing, it's only right that a professional take the sport seriously enough to get in tip top shape.
Who is he fighting next? If it's Wlad, then all the better! Tyson being in tip top shape will provide his fans with fewer excuses when Wlad knocks him out.
Re: Tyson Fury is looking in very good shape
He would be a fool not to give himself every chance of winning , when he gets his shot , so good for him if he has decided to get in top form.

I hate to put a dampener on things but the photo is from the build up to the Johnson fight.
I doubt very much he looks like this at the mo of he weighed 21 stone recently.

How many great HW's have been really ripped? It's almost always the smaller ones that look like bodybuilders, in fact Wlad is probably the most muscular of any super HW who ever reigned at the top long, is anyone else in the discussion even? When you are huge, it's not important and likely is a big detriment to be cutting weight, which makes such a difference in looks obviously.
If you take any fighter from the lighters divisions and talk about how jacked they are, you can bet they would still rather appear average and outweigh their opponent while conserving energy in training.

I would say all great HW were quite ripped in their prime

Not many. In fact, I remember Larry used to look like a poster child for training bras.

Exactly. Ali wasn't ripped, Foreman wasn't, Lewis wasn't, Holmes wasn't, Bowe wasn't, Mercer wasn't, etc. The only two great guys you can really point to in the modern era are Tyson and Holyfield, who were both quite small and used steroids.
Re: Tyson Fury is looking in very good shape
Of course! Tyson Fury is a very serious athlete.
Re: Tyson Fury is looking in very good shape
No way is that photo not warped in someway. His waist looks almost as thin as mine and then all that muscle further up? It doesn't look normal. Deontay Wilder fair enough, but Tyson Fury? I don't believe it.
Re: Tyson Fury is looking in very good shape
Well maybe, but something seems odd about that picture. :-\

Perspective, lighting and breathing in. Fury has swung about a bit and was obviously in the best shape aesthetically at this time, but the shot and pose both flatter him even further.
Re: Tyson Fury is looking in very good shape
Tyson needs to be at his best to beat Wlad. I think he is too inexperienced yet but he needs to be in the best condition of his life.
Re: Tyson Fury is looking in very good shape
I think it's hilarious that Tyson Fury looks like an actual beast but actually sounds like that guy from 8 out of 10 cats.
