Tyson Fury eats… 16 eggs/day to prepare for a classic fight with Usyk
Eating up to… 16 eggs/day is enough nutrition for the “2.06m tall monster” Tyson Fury to have enough strength to defeat Oleksandr Usyk in the classic belt unification match?
Tyson Fury, his family and training crew arrived in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia earlier this week to prepare for the world classic boxing heavyweight title unification match with Oleksandr Usyk on May 18. Not only is it a matter of expertise, Fury’s nutritional preparation – the “2.0m tall monster” weighing nearly 130 kg – also attracts special attention.
Remember before the Fury – Ngannou fight at the end of October last year, nutritionist George Lockhart revealed details of Fury’s daily meal menu in the period leading up to the match. And this time that diet is almost unchanged as Fury focuses on preparing for the historic match with Usyk.
Basically, Tyson Fury will eat up to 6 meals a day, including a total of 16 eggs. Nutritious foods such as red meat, chicken, salmon, fruit juice, smoothies, yogurt, vegetables, berries, nuts… are calculated by Lockhart to include in each meal. Eat within 2 weeks before the match, ensuring Fury will consume 5,000 – 6,000 calories/day to compensate for energy after tiring training sessions.
Normally, Tyson Fury’s first meal of the day starts at 10am and every 2-3 hours the British boxer eats a meal until his last meal at 12pm.
To start the new week, Fury will start with a meal of 5 eggs, spinach, an omelet with salted turkey, 2 large pieces of potatoes and half an avocado.
Fury’s late meals of the day will often include snacks, Greek yogurt, fruits like blueberries, raspberries, and dark chocolate…
“Every meal of Tyson Fury is a carefully calculated mix of foods, even though he doesn’t like to eat vegetables. For example, on days off I will let Fury eat more red meat so his body has time to digest it.” Basically, whether it’s a heavy or light training day, Fury wakes up with almost no change in body weight, so the meals of the day must ensure calorie intake,” nutritionist Lockhart revealed. highway.
In addition to eating to ensure physical strength, Fury’s nutritional regimen also aims to help quickly recover from a deep tear in his right eyelid sustained during a practice match in early February. Obviously, helping Fury recover more quickly from his eye injury will help Fury have more chances of winning against a very strong Usyk.
