WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23 KOs) and the legendary Muhammad Ali (56-5, 35 KOs) are not too similar, but both are “incredibly charismatic.” So says Bob Arum, who was the promoter of The Greatest American and is now the co-promoter of the Brit.
“They don’t look alike as individuals because Tyson is much less of a politician and more of an artist,” Arum said.
talkSPORT. “But both of them are incredibly charismatic, they both attract the attention of the public with their character.”
On December 3, Fury is scheduled to fight his compatriot Derek Chisora for the third time. If everything is okay here, in February, as everyone hopes, there will be a fight for the absolute status in the division with Oleksand Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs).
Arum spoke about a nightmare – he is so worried about Fury
“I hope he will pass Chisora,” Arum cunningly knows that Fury will pass him. “And if he does, then next week I will meet with Egis Klimas, Lomachenko’s manager, and Usyk will be there.”
The functionary added that there will be “a serious discussion about where we are going, because we are not going to sit and wait for the Saudis forever.”
The other day, Chisora told how Fury kind of cheated: he talked about Tyson’s “sneaky” in their first fight.
And at the beginning of the month, Inoki, a participant in the “battle of the century” against Muhammad Ali, died.
