    I mean the dude has very skinny legs. His calves looks like a new born bambi legs. He must skip the leg day workout.

    Yeah, he's a boxer, he doesn't need "leg day".
    Certainly shouldn't be bothering with heavy calf raises.

    Some people just genetically have small legs, but he should focus on squats,leg presses and some calf raises

    He does have skinnier legs than most hw's but they're not nearly as skinny as they appear..

    Our eyes do play tricks on our mind, same as our mind plays tricks on our eyes. Bet if they were measured and the measurements were posted, most on here would argue about the results.

    I mean come true, we have half the posters on here that argue against proven facts of an hourly basis. His legs look much thinner than they really are because he's 6'7", and he's still growing. When I say growing, I mean he's still filling his frame out, not adding height

    Doesn't seem to stop him from knocking people out.

    To be fair, there's heavier men that him, fat and unfit, with no strength at all, and with skinny legs ... and their legs don't snap under the weight either.
    Or maybe occasionally they do.

    The problem is he's 6'7". Anybody over 6'4" looks goofy as hell.

    It's genetics. He has the legs of an NBA guard. His legs will never be as big as Tua's, and it would just take away some of Wilder's speed and stamina anyway.

    Tyson Fury's got the shoulders of a girl and the hips of a middle-aged woman ... and he beat the heavyweight with the best build in the division.

    All the top heavyweights aren't proportional.

    When David Haye braids his hair, he has the smallest head I've ever seen for a heavyweight.

    This is true. If you are 6'7" and you want to be aesthetic it's not happening.

    Give the hell up about looking good at that height.

    Yep. Tyson's weight is all from the hips down. Deontay's is all from the waist up. Some guys get power from their shoulders, some get it from their legs.
