Tyson Fury Weighs In Lighter for Comeback Fight Against Makhmudov

Former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has weighed in at 267.9 pounds for his upcoming comeback fight against Russian boxer Arslanbek Makhmudov, who registered 264.9 pounds. Although Fury is three pounds heavier than his opponent, he is significantly lighter than during his previous bouts against Oleksandr Usyk in 2024. The 37-year-old Briton, emerging from retirement for the fifth time, described himself as light and lean after a 16-week training camp in Thailand. Fury expressed confidence in securing a knockout victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, aiming to reclaim world titles and reassert his dominance in the heavyweight division. He criticized current titleholders and predicted they would eventually seek fights with him due to his commercial appeal. The match, scheduled for Saturday night, will be broadcast exclusively on Netflix, highlighting Fury's enduring marketability despite a 16-month absence from the ring. Fury emphasized his physical readiness and intent to make a strong statement against Makhmudov.
