Tyson Fury not bothering to keep himself in shape

Fury will never keep himself in shape. It's not how he's wired up as a fighter, and would probably detract from his in-ring success in some way if he never had these lengthy crash periods. It'll catch up to him soon though; he already looks a lot slower and sloppier than he did a few years ago, and at this stage I think the decline will only accelerate.

I doubt we'll see the Usyk fight unfortunately. Fury knows he'll need to be in top shape for that one but I'm not sure he's willing or able to get there anymore.

 

Fury has never ever been in any shape other than obese.

The heavyweight era of now has been so terrible that an average fighter has claimed lineal for a very long time.

I refuse to believe that a man who uppercut himself in the jaw is anything other than average.

He’s just a loud mouth drunk who wont stop eating, he will lose to Joshua based on lack of discipline alone.

Usyk will eat his children

 

I feel Fury likes it though. The thought of him showing up fat and school a champ keeps his ego up.
He rather retire than face Usyk to keep that delusion to himself intact.

Sad truth is that he us relapsing. He already looked coked up. Now he is drinkngbsnd getting fatter again.
At this rate he will end up where he was post klitschko again.

 

Fury doesn’t have to cut 50 pounds to make weight, it’s that rapid drain that ages a fighter. Fury is built like that, the only problem is if he’s training or not. People say he’s training so there’s absolutely no problem with how he looks. If AJ stops training you would see it on his body, Tyson will look the same either way. People are built differently.

 

99% of your favourite boxers loved to drink (and often to excess). Maybe it helps you to have an irrational fear of alcohol, but it’s not that big of a deal in small quantities.

 

It really isn't. Some embarrassing posts in this thread letting their personal dislike for someone cloud their judgment. Not good, not good at all.

As already mentioned in this thread, he's been training every day going by his insta and he always has a pint or two to unwind even when he's in Camp.

 

He’s in shape. You can tell by how lean his face is. The guy just has terrible genetics when it comes to body composition. He also has unusually narrow shoulders and wide hips for a man which makes him look even more non-athletic.

 

Narrow Shoulders?

Fury has the Torso of a caveman, his love handles make it look less broad but he can outwrestle a gorilla.

 

Half a pint?

Fury a lightweight.

 

Most recent photo of him with members of the staff at Babucho. He actually looks fairly decent.

He was in the pub for 5 minutes and didn't have a drink of alcohol I believe it says......he's also no fatter than usual

 

He could become like Ricky Hatton?

 

It's not like he has to boil down to make weight. Weight fluctuation at heavyweight is less damaging to the body for that reason. Thay could all look like him, ruiz or Miller as long as they're fit to fight 12 rounds. Plus, he may genuinely be going into retirement yet. I personally think he'll fight the that one last huge fight but the way the fella changes his mind mid interview frequently, he probably does spend 50% of his days convinced that he's hung them up

 

Mate you lost me at "Khan later in his career" I believe there has been a certain percentage of the boxing community I.e. 100% that have labelled him chinny and for good reason since he got put over by that monster puncher Willie limond.

 

I'd be happy if they gave him the vital treatment and gave him champion emeritus status while he's deciding on his future.
