TYSON FURY appears to have bulked up dramatically as he prepares to face Oleksandr Usyk once again.
The Gypsy King lost his belt and his undefeated record when he faced the Ukrainian in May.
His preparation for the rematch with Usyk is well underway and some fans believe Fury could take a different approach after seeing how big he looks.
Fury, 36, sparred with Zhan Kossobutskiy ahead of his bout with Usyk on December 21.
The pair posed for the camera after their session by flexing their muscles, and fans noticed Fury’s increase in size.
One theorised Fury could be planning a different approach after Usyk was able to overcome his reach disadvantage to take the fight to the Brit.

Fury could be plotting to come in heavier than the whopping 18 stone, seven pounds he weighed in May in order to implement a more physical fight on Usyk.
Tying up, clinching and making the former cruiserweight king carry his weight, as he did in his historic 2015 win over Wladimir Klitschko, could be a viable route to victory against the unified heavyweight king.
Fury hurt Usyk in the seventh round of their meeting and is confident of exacting his revenge in their second dance.
