Tyson Fury Looks Scary Skinny Before His Fight With Oleksandr Usyk

This is going to be one of the greatest heavyweight title fights of all time. The winner will become the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in 1999, holding the WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO, Ring Magazine, and Lineal titles - a staggering eight belts in total. I was a little skeptical when Fury said he got cut a couple of months ago because he's been fighting big ass dudes for a long time; having a ton of mass was always helping him. 

I was kinda thinking that he may have cut himself on purpose in order to gain some extra time to get into the shape it will take to outbox the smaller and quicker Usyk. The tape that they put out in regards to how Tyson got cut still doesn't convince me. 

It's just insanely obvious he has lost a lot of weight since his last fight, he weighed in at 277 against Ngannou.

He may now be lighter than he was in 2012 at 245.5 according to John Fury. 

I don’t know how much of this weight loss is natural. Ozempic may have been a last-minute solution to getting as quick as possible as fast as possible to be able to go deep into the greatest heavyweight bout of all time. 

Someone is going to lose the 0 on their record after this fight. It's going to be nuts, and Usyk has a whole nation at war behind him. I will be buying the paper view because this isn't going to be the slugfest that past heavyweight bouts with Fury in them have been. This is going to be whoever has the sharpest skill set wins. The weight difference between Usyk and Fury isn't going to be as big as we once thought but the power still goes to Fury, who is now leaner and meaner. Going to be an awesome fight.
