Tyson Fury’s nutritionist reveals secret to Gypsy King’s incredible body transformation as he shares six-month regime
TYSON FURY’S nutritionist has revealed how he got The Gypsy King into tremendous shape for Saturday night’s clash with Oleksandr Usyk.
Fury, 35, appeared overweight when he laboured to a split-decision win over Francis Ngannou back in October.
But this week he has looked like a changed man as he eyes the undisputed heavyweight crown.
And nutritionist Greg Marriott has now confirmed the work to get Fury into the best possible condition began SIX MONTHS ago.
He also predicted the WBC champion will come in at around 18 stone 10 pounds.
This would be nearly 16 pounds lighter than he was for the Ngannou fight and his lowest since he fought Otto Wallin back in September 2019.
Speaking on Sky Sports, Marriott said: “I said ‘We need to get some fat off you’. So we went out to Jeddah in November, did a fat loss camp for six weeks, and then got into serious training.
“He’ll tell you himself he’s never going to be body beautiful, it’s not about that.
“The body composition that has changed with him still being 18 stone 10 – I think people think he’s going to be 17’13 – never.
“He comes to my room every night and he went ‘Greg, I haven’t felt like this since Wilder 2‘.

“I said to him ‘I’m so happy for you but it’s also sad because we might not ever see this Tyson Fury ever again’.
“What that means is, watch what he does to Usyk. It’ll be like man vs boy, I promise you. He’s a serious Tyson Fury at the minute. A serious Tyson Fury.”
Fury and Usyk, 37, will weigh in on Friday, 24 hours before their blockbuster showdown.
On Thursday, the Brit refused to look at Usyk as the pair squared off following their final press conference.
