Teofimo Lopez weighs in on Tyson Fury’s legacy
Former undisputed world lightweight champion and current WBO champion in the super lightweight division, Teofimo Lopez, has expressed his views on Briton Tyson Fury. The American said he does not consider the Gypsy King to be the greatest heavyweight in boxing history.
“I would say he is the best of his era, but certainly not of all time. This man could be called the Conor McGregor of boxing: he has done so much in the entertainment industry and for our sport
In general, it has already passed its peak. Yes, he can definitely still do something. But I think after the fight with Ngannou everything became clear to everyone, right?” said Teofimo Lopez.
As you know, on February 17, Fury will fight with Ukrainian Alexander Usik for the absolute championship in the heavyweight class.
