Tyson Fury is one of the most accomplished and loved heavyweight boxers of all time. From the old era, fans perceived heavyweight fighters as ones with impressive chiseled physiques. However, Tyson Fury completely changed that notion, as he never really boasted a solid physique. ‘The Gypsy King’ always relied on his boxing skills, movements, punching variations, and stamina to win fights.
Recently, the WBC champion took to Instagram and addressed concerns about his 2022 physical frame on a story.
He wrote, “I dont remember ever looking in shape!”
