The estimation of Otto Wallin’s trainer aside, a masked Fury still needed to bend down on stage Friday at MGM Grand to go eye-to-eye with Wallin, who stands nearly 6-feet-6. Fury was significantly heavier than Wallin at their weigh-in as well.
England’s Fury stepped on the Nevada State Athletic Commission’s scale at 254¼ pounds. Sweden’s Wallin weighed in at 236 pounds for their 12-round heavyweight fight Saturday night at T-Mobile Arena.
