Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury Says He Weighs 350, Not Worried as Training Starts

[Cheek busting]

So he's about 90lbs heavier than when he fought Wlad.

That's a lot of weight to shift, but he does seem to lose it quite quickly usually.

Hahah more like a bit over 100 pounds, as I think he was like 245 for Klitschko, his lightest ever in the ring.

Fury is best right around 245-255 (where he weighed for his fights against Johnson, Cunningham, and Klitschko).

He is solid, and has visible abs.

Fury is great at losing weight in short amount of time without it really effecting his performance. Before the Chisora rematch, he was well over 300. He came in a bit heavy, and not 100% in condition, as he weighed like 265, but still, he was light as ever on his feet, and showed great stamina keeping up steady footwork, and punch-rate throughout.


Here is Fury in top shape:

This was a few days before Klitschko fight.

I think he looked the best in his entire career, weight/shape wise, against Cunningham, where he came in at 253, I believe:


And here he is about 20 pounds overweight against Abell (with clothes he weighed in at 276):
He's definitely carrying too much weight, but still, even a Fury only 85% motivated and overweight, beats any HW in the world aside from a handful.

****ing hell.. michael bisping covers himself in sweating oil, submerges himself in a steam bath for half an hour, gets out and wears a sauna suit, a tracksuit, then gets in bed and covers himself with about 15 layers of bedding for an hour and loses 7 lbs.

Theres no ****ing way Fury loses 5 pounds in one work out. Forget May comeback, it isnt happening. Period.

Omg!!!

Tyson "Butterball" Fury should go to Japan and join Sumo wrestling.

He aint ready

[Weltschmerz]

Good if he's on the right track mentally but it will take time to drop all that weight.

You sure as **** wont see this fury again.

You sure as **** wont see this fury again.

He needs more muscle mass. He won't be able to get ripped without being skinny.

5lbs in a workout? 5lbs of fat is around 17500 calories, tell me a workout that can burn that much.

See? if I were a certain kind of poster I would mention "a workout with your______" but i wouldn't do that

Look hes going to be heavy his first few tune ups and, one can wreck their knees in that situation, its not ideal. But he moves well and can alter his posture and take it off slowly. The best thing he has going for him is that like Toney (not comparing the merits of the two!) he has skills that he has internalized. He does not need to work those things out, the skills, reactions are there and as the Broner idiots say "he still yung do."

let me ask you this: would you rather be a fighter like Wilder, who suddenly put on this weight, where you are past thirty, still really have a lot to learn in the ring...or a fighter that has one thing to focus on: losing the beer flab and getting the timing back? besides when people question Fury's chin now? he can ask "which one?"

This guy is done.

He's lucky he's still in his 20's. Otherwise I wouldn't fancy his chances.
