    Fury has weighed in the 270s on several occasion, but only once did he put forth an excellent performance, that being the Wilder rematch.
    He put on a couple of more lbs for the trilogy fight and almost lost that one.

    Career high weight for the challenger; 3¼ lbs more than versus Ngannou.

    Career high for the champion as well, but's only up 2½ lbs from last time - as opposed to nineteen.

    If he had been shagging his wife Paris like a good husband he would have been slimmer.

    Fury is probably a starfish and has her lady do all of the work.

    He went 10 or 11 minutes in the last staredown, if he had tried it again just now he'd end up having a glad eye.

    Usyk, of course has a glad eye anyway, so water off a ducks back for him.

    Ok...let's confirm here: were these truly weights at the moment or had they been weighed inside earlier?

    Those were the weights, they just had clothes on.

    I think by the way all the people were looking at the scales when Fury walked up, it would suggest that was the first time they knew the weights, Buffer couldn’t believe what he was seeing
