Is there an autocorrect malfunction there or something?

OP you’ve been missing some outstanding boxing. Tyson Fury is one of the greatest heavyweight champs of all time. That white boy can flat out fight. Tyson Fury would have knocked Mike Tyson and Holyfield out cold in short order. Lewis might have made it the distance but without doubt lost. Fury is 30-0-1 (21 by KO) and the guy he tied was Deontay Wilder who had never lost a fight in 42 fights. Fury recently fought Wilder again but actually got in shape this time around and beat the ever living shite out of Wilder and put him in the hospital. Fury is a two-time heavyweight world champion, having held the WBC, The Ring magazine and lineal titles since defeating Deontay Wilder in February 2020; previously he held the unified WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, IBO, The Ring, and lineal titles after defeating Wladimir Klitschko in 2015. With his defeat of Wilder, Fury became the third heavyweight, after Floyd Patterson and Muhammad Ali, to hold The Ring magazine title twice, and the first heavyweight in history to have held the WBA (Super), WBC, IBF, WBO, and The Ring magazine titles.

Wilder wasn’t chopped liver coming into that Fury fight with a record of 42-0-1. 41 wins by KO.

UFC and MMA is the reason why though. Dana White makes the best fight the best and do it regularly.

The two Fury vs Wilder fights were the best heavyweight boxing I've seen in a long time. Watching those fights live had my whole family jumping around and screaming. Fury is 6'9 but moves like a much smaller man, incredible to see such a huge dude slip punches the way he does.

Here is a good video about Tyson Fury. His dad named him after Mike Tyson and predicted at birth he would be heavyweight champ.

After a little YouTube research you are very wrong here my friend.

KO, unlikely... but he would present problems for both of them.

I blame the shitty decisions on the downward spiral of boxing. There was a stretch where I’d stop what I was doing to watch the fights on HBO. There were so many bad decisions I gave up.

i'll admit to having never watched this dude fight. So Just went did some YouTube research.

this white guy goes 0-3 at best against the guys you just mentioned.

Riddick Bowe would also beat him.

I’ll give you Holyfield vs Tyson fury but to say he would easily beat Tyson if fricking ridiculous.

Fury is the best right now in a sport that is a shell of what it once was.
