wladimir200

By Scott Gilfoid: Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) say he feels younger now that he’s no longer a world champion, and he’s looking forward to challenging IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) in their rematch on July 9 at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, UK.

Wladimir, 40, plans on knocking Fury out and recapturing those belts that are now in the slightly pudgy looking British fighters’ possession. Wladimir feels he has less pressure on him now that he’s no longer defending his titles. He likes being on the other side of the fence as the challenger for a change after holding down world titles for nine straight years until his loss to Fury last November.

Mike Tyson likes Tyson Fury

fury888

By Scott Gilfoid: Former heavyweight world champion Mike Tyson says he likes the current IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) in part because he was named after him. Tyson, 49, follows Fury’s fights, and he was impressed with his recent victory over 40-year-old Wladimir Klitschko last November in Dusseldorf, Germany.

Tyson notes that Wladimir had been champion for many years until Fury came along and beat him. Tyson hears how some people call the 27-year-old Fury a bum, but he still likes him because he showed that he could beat the best heavyweight of current era in Wladimir.

Fury will be facing Wladimir in a rematch on July 9 at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, UK.

Fury still has 40+ pounds to lose for Klitschko rematch

fury7377By Scott Gilfoid: IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (25-0, 19 KOs) hasn’t put much of a dent in the close to 60 pounds he needs to burn off before he gets down to his target weight for his rematch against Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) in less than two months on July 9 at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, UK.

According to Sky Sports, Fury still has 44lbs to go, and he’s having problems in both his sparring and with his trainer Peter Fury. It seems the 27-year-old Tyson Fury was royally worked over in sparring on Tuesday in getting knocked down several times by a light heavyweight from Belgium.

Naturally, Peter wasn’t too happy about it and he reportedly let Fury know about it and walked out.

Haye thinks Fury could lose to Wladimir

fury#1By Scott Gilfoid: David Haye couldn’t help but to notice how fat IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) has become since his upset win over former world champion Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) since their fight last November.

Haye now has doubts whether the 27-year-old Fury can beat Wladimir in their scheduled rematch on July 9 at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, UK. Fury has packed on close to 60 pounds of pure blubber on his 6’9” frame and his training camp has turned into what amounts to be a fat farm to lose lard rather than a training camp to work on tactics, power and stamina. Haye now wonders whether Fury will balloon up in weight in the future and wind up like former world champion Buster Douglas, who put on a great deal of weight after he stopped fighting and ended up briefly in a diabetic coma.

Fury, 27, had been saying recently that he’ll be wrapping up his boxing career after his next fight against the 40-year-old Klitschko. Fury came into training looking very, very fat with a midsection that you’d normally see a non-athlete.

Tyson Fury needs to lose over 40lbs for Klitschko fight

fury67By Scott Gilfoid: IBO/WBA/WBA heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) is reportedly three stones (42lbs) overweight as he prepares for his July 9th rematch against the hard hitting 40-year-old Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, UK.

Fury is confident that he’ll be able to burn the blubber off his pear-shaped body by the time the fight takes place in 11 weeks from now, but he might not be able to do it without draining himself. 11 weeks is like Marine Corp boot camp for Fury, and that’s an awful lot of weight to take off.

Tyson Fury bragging about dealing with pressure

fury49By Scott Gilfoid: IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) is bragging about how the pressure isn’t getting to him as he prepares for his rematch against 40-year-old Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) on July 9 at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, UK.

Fury ballooned up in weight after his narrow and ugly to watch 12 round decision victory over Wladimir las November. Fury has been said to be over 40 pounds’ overweight as he started his training camp recently. The 27-year-old Fury has a little over two months to burn the blubber off of his frame so that he can make a good fight of it against Klitschko on 7/9.

It appears that Fury is following the same path as former UK star Ricky Hatton, who used to put on a lot of flab in between fights with his lifestyle. Hatton got away with his healthy lifestyle for a while, but it eventually caught up to him and he found himself no longer effective in the ring.

Fury bellyaching about training camp

fury888By Scott Gilfoid: Tyson Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) officially stared his training camp for his July 9 fight against Wladimir Klitschko (64-4, 53 KOs) at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, UK. Fury is already complaining long and hard about the pain involved in him having to do a lot of exercises to get ready for the fight.

Fury put on a lot of weight since his last fight against Wladimir last November, and he’s now having to burn off that blubber. In looking at some of Fury’s recent videos, I think he’s around 30 pounds’ overweight, maybe slightly more than that. Fury has only three months to burn the fat off before he’ll be facing Wladimir.

I think Fury will take the weight off, but he’ll probably be weak as heck for having put on and burned off the lard. I was going to predict a victory for Fury, but now with him being all fat and all. He has too much fat to take off and it’s going to turn his training camp into a fat farm rather than one where he’s working on the finer points of the art to get ready for Wladimir’s fighting style.
