Tyson Fury has promised to come in heavier at Friday’s weigh-in as he seeks a destructive performance in his highly anticipated rematch with Oleksandr Usyk. After losing to Usyk by split decision in May, Fury is determined to claim revenge and recapture the heavyweight titles. Fury, who aims to add more power to his punches, has gained weight in preparation, stating that a 20st man hitting someone is far more impactful than a 17st man.
Usyk, undeterred by Fury’s changes, has prepared diligently, acknowledging that Fury will be different this time, but vowing that he too will not be the same fighter as in the first bout. Fury, however, welcomes the challenge and looks forward to facing Usyk at his best, eager to prove his superiority once and for all.
