- Fans are stunned by Fury’s look, and think he’ll easily take down Oleksandr Usyk
Tyson Fury has posted a topless picture of himself on Instagram showing his physique, and fans think it proves himself ahead of the huge bout with Oleksandr Usyk.
The Gypsy King meets the Ukrainian at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, as they bid to become the undisputed world heavyweight champion of the world – after their initial February fight was postponed.
Fury, who is defending his WBC belt against Usyk on May 18, shared the topless snap on the social media platform, adding the caption ‘Undisputed incoming’ and the date of their fight.
Fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to comment on Fury’s new appearance, as The Gypsy King looks ready for the huge PPV clash.
One wrote: ‘Fury is going to KO Usyk’, and another said: ‘Some shape mind. Usyk gonna get burst.’

‘We could be about to see the very best of Fury’, one fan declared, as another proclaimed ‘Fury is going to be the first man to stop Usyk. Bookmark this’.
Another said: ‘He looks great. Usyk is in trouble’, and another claimed Fury has ‘been working for this one’.
In the week before beating former UFC champion Francis Ngannou last October, Fury gorged on six meals a day, including a total of 16 eggs, and all amounting to a training camp consumption of around 6000 calories every day.
The 35-year-old hasn’t fought since that controversial victory, which came a couple of months after Usyk’s last fight, when he won by TKO over Daniel Dubois in August 2023.
Their February 17 clash was postponed after the Brit suffered a nasty cut in sparring, but their rearranged showdown is now just over a week away.
