    What are the chances of British fans being able to go to Saudi?

    I really want to go to this, Riyadh is such a beautiful city and this is the fight of our generation.

    Either that or he's training for Wilder III.

    As an S&C coach and nutrition coach, Tyson’s aesthetic appearance really puzzles me. I don’t understand how he hasn’t shed this excess back fat.

    His love handles are atrocious, yeah.
    Weird isn't it, because he's been looking quite slim in his clothes lately.

    He just has an extremely weird body composition. He holds fat in awkward places. Bellew was the same with his little ***** titty bird chest.

    Reminds me of Big Don Charles saying to Tyson at the Fury-Chisora II press conference “you’re disfigured, the way you’re built”.

    Lol.

    He is clearly predisposed to storing fat in this area, interestingly this is normally a characteristic of ‘highly stressed’ individuals.

    I know he’s not fight ready yet - but I’d say at the moment he looks in the worst shape he’s been in since the comeback. I know he’s obviously strong and fit, and it seems his team prefer him heavier, but aesthetically he looks pretty bad right now.

    Highly stressed = mentally shot. You got a citation for this one pal?

    He's got what Alan Partridge correctly descried as a fat back.

    This. The belts are just a racket for sanctioning bodies to line their pockets, hence the alphabet soup and gold/silver/bronze nonsense they've added to the mix. Hard to get through a TV card without half the fights being for one belt or another, nowadays - most of us just want to see a good scrap!

    Warren saying it’s on now. Must be very close.

    There’s plenty of research that has found that chronic stress may pump up the rate in which new fat cells are formed and how they are retained despite intense exercise and diet. Fat boy Whyte even blamed his poor condition against Wach on all the stress his failed drug test caused. Not saying for a second that Fury is mentally shot just perhaps that he is not as self confident on the inside and chilled as the Gypsy King alter ego suggests.

    Always said the same.

    Tyson thrives as an underdog. Any other way and he suffers from imposter syndrome.
