Mike Tyson Height Imposes Tough Challenge For Tyson Fury The size difference between Mike Tyson and Tyson Fury is proving to be a major challenge for the latter as they prepare to face each other in their highly-anticipated heavyweight bout.

Nevertheless, Tyson Fury's fans remain unwavering in their support, confident that he will be able to find a way to get through whatever strategy Mike Tyson has in store. While it is an undeniable disadvantage, Fury seems determined to defy the odds and make use of the tools he has. For Mike Tyson, he was certainly been aided by the advantage of height all these years, but it remains to be seen if that will be enough to defeat Tyson Fury. |
