(Sports news, martial arts news) Tyson Fury’s amazing body transformation, from a boxer with a bulky body, is now neat and toned.
Tyson Fury’s journey is seriously preparing for the top heavyweight boxing match with Oleksandr Usyk on May 18 in Saudi Arabia. In addition to practicing Boxing skills, the British boxer has undergone an amazing physical transformation, from a somewhat flabby boxer, Fury is now more toned and lean.
In the match with former UFC champion Francis Ngannou, the “Gypsy King” was very fat. However, in recent months, Fury has quietly lost weight to get ready to fight the Ukrainian boxer.
The stark contrast between Fury’s body in the fight with Ngannou and the latest photos at the gym. Boxing journalist Michael Benson used delicate words to praise the “transformation” of the 35-year-old boxer.
Although the amount of weight lost has not been disclosed, Fury is much leaner than his 277.8 pounds (125 kg) mark in the Ngannou fight. Fury’s hard training shows that the British boxer has absolute respect for “Cat” Usyk.
Fury said: “I’m training hard for the fight with him, I’m doing everything I can. I respect Usyk as a man. I also respect his career.”
The heavyweight boxing title unification match between Fury and Usyk, which will take place on May 18, is likened to the match 25 years ago since Lenox Lewis defeated Evander Holyfield to become the absolute heavyweight boxing champion.
Previously, Lewis captured 3 WBA, WBC and IBF belts (along with The Ring title) to become the latest heavyweight “absolute champion”.
And this time, in the “4 belt era” of WBA (super), WBC, WBO and IBF, the winner of the Fury vs Usyk fight will also go down in history as “the absolute champion of 4 belts”. Firstly.
In theory, the world’s leading prestigious boxing organizations will only recognize Fury, or Usyk, as the “new absolute champion” if they capture the four prestigious belts WBA (super), WBC, WBO and IBF. In fact, the winner of the upcoming match will have many more titles. Specifically, the reward is also the heavyweight belt of the IBO organization. Usyk currently holds this title after defeating Anthony Joshua in September 2021.
In addition, the 37-year-old Ukrainian boxer also holds the title The Ring. For his part, Tyson Fury solely owns the WBC heavyweight title. Notably, the WBC has designed a completely new belt for the “match of the century” on May 18.
