Fighting at a career lightest weight, Fury aims to face Joshua soon but faces tough Wach first.
British heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has tipped the scales at just 120kg — 26lb lighter than his opponent Mariusz Wach — in preparation for their bout on Friday. This is only the fourth time in Fury's professional career that he has weighed less than his opponent, highlighting both his dedication to fighting condition and the unique nature of this matchup.
Fury arrived on stage wearing a designer robe emblazoned with a large cross chain, joking and laughing off the edge before posing for photographs. The 37-year-old former champion is currently 120kg compared to Wach's more formidable 132kg frame; Wach has lost seven of his last ten bouts but still will prove no pushover.
