Basically EVERYONE over 30 is past prime in boxing. So not really surprising. Think statistically 27yrs is the peak age so a prime is more or less, on avg, a few yrs before & a few yrs after 27yrs. Obviously outliers who peak younger or older, but 90% or more past their prime at Tyson's age.

None of that is remotely true nor applies today what is real is someone’s lifestyle and or inabilities to cope with actual picking and choosing when past prime is next fight everyone would be saying how great Fury is and how he’s getting better if he beat up Chisora a fourth time .

Hes almost certainly past his best considering his age, mileage and the way hes treated his body over the years, but really...when was he actually at his peak? theres been fights dotted throughout his whole career where he hasnt looked great. The time he punched himself in the face, the first McDermott fight, getting dropped by Cunningham, his initial comeback fights, the Wallin fight etc etc. For the first half of his career he was generally considered to be a clumsy goof. Even after the Wlad fight people werent all that sold on him. It wasnt until the Wilder trilogy, particularly the second fight, that people started pushing him as some all time head to head monster.Comment

His best condition was Wilder 2.
He's never ripped, but his arms and shoulders and chest looked solid. He was physically strong and still had movement. He was a beast that night. He weight 270. Nobody in the division would have beaten that version. He was aggressive and also elusive.
To be fair, he looked OK on his feet in the Whyte fight too, he was about 265 for that.
Anything around 265-270 is right for him. He shouldnt fight anywhere above that.
