    Comments Thread For: Photos: Wladimir Klitschko, Tyson Fury Ready For War

    Tyson Fury took one last look into Wladimir Klitschko's eyes before they meet in the ring as they weighed in just a pound apart ahead of Saturday's world heavyweight title showdown.

    The British challenger came in at 246.4 pounds, his lightest in three years, while WBA, WBO and IBF champion Klitschko was a pound lighter at 245.3 pounds.

    Klitschko had been expected to be leaner and lighter than usual for this bout but will actually be more than four pounds heavier than in his last fight against Bryant Jennings.

    Looks like Fury is in good shape (for him), hope it means he has a bit more stamina come fight night.

    Rooting for the upset

      Wlad taller than Tyson? Has someone been exaggerating about their height?

        Starting to rethink

        When I first heard about this scrap I was hyped. Getting close now and all I see is Vlad crushing this guy. Antics may work on a fringe contender, not on a champion. Vlad in 9 but they could stop it after 7 and be justified.

          As I thought Fury is all talk and has come in light to stay light on his feet out of harms way. I really hoped he'd attempt to have that extra muscle for power and a potential KO but I understand his team have reservations over his power and durability. This better not be a stinker.

              I think Fury is definitely taller than him... In the meetings leading up to the fight they've looked similar height but I've seen old pictures where Fury looks a lot taller than him.

              I don't know to be honest. Could be the shoes they are wearing.... maybe Fury was bare footed but he's definitely taller than Wlad

                Have you seen the weigh in video, Wlad was basically wearing heels.

                    Vlad is massive for this fight.
