Who was the best, Ali or Fury?

No but he was the Black Superman.

Disappointed to not to see a thread earlier about Tyson Fury..now Heavyweight Champion of the World

Amazingly he is white. Our previous white heavyweight champion was Bob Fitzsimons, 1897-1899

Fury considerably the larger of the two.


They used to have Tyson Fury on Ch 5 for free...where he seemed to me a big man with a big heart

I hope he can defend his title successfully

Maybe David Haye if he wins his comeback fight

Think Joshua will be in the Mix somewhere down the Line ,If we take Lewis out of it How many times have two british boxers fought for a world heavy title ,anyone Know ?

Lewis and Bruno was one

Lewis-Akinwande the only other, I think.

Forgot about purple aki

did herbie hide ever fight for a title

Got battered by Riddick Bowe.

Hide was twice WBO champion, apparently. I didn't recall his loss to Bowe being for Hide's belt. Lost in his 3rd defense second time around to Vitali Klitschko.

is he still in prison MD??

was it for murder or selling drugs.........or was it the cricketer was send down for drugs........is it chris lewis .....might be the wrong surname

Should be out by now. Only got a couple of years

Drugs

herbie hide seemed a likeable chap but don't he was the sharpest tool in the box

Some of them are punchy even before they get in the ring.

ChrisLewis was the cricketer bringing drugs in got a serious sentence over ten years iirc,think he might be out now will check

Chris Lewis been out a while

read an interview with him post prison

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/33234304

Got out this summer.

yeah , served 6 out of 13 years

Ali obviously.

Moeen is a very useful all rounder but I doubt Fury knows which end of the bat to hold.

Of course Ali was the greatest boxer but he was also a better singer than Tyson Fury but perhaps not Billy Fury

Ali did fight some bums. Richard Dunn ffs... The twot should have stuck to footy.

Jerry Quarry was funny. Ken Norton wasn't. Love Ali. One of the greatest chins in the history of pugilsm..
