“He Knows It, i will eat him” Retired Heavyweight Champion Says He Would ‘Eat Tyson Fury For Breakfast
Tyson Fury has only ever lost one professional fight so far.
That came back in May when he stepped into the ring with Oleksandr Usyk to compete for all four of the major world titles. It was the first undisputed fight in almost 25 years and saw Fury come out on the wrong side of a points decision after a close contest over 12 rounds.
In December this year, ‘The Gypsy King’ has a chance to avenge the loss and immediately after the first fight spoke of having too much fun in the ring and how he will improve.
His corner came under some fire for mixed messages in the later rounds but he has since confirmed he will stick with the same team second time round.
While he may still be considered one of the best fighters of his generation, former world champion Frank Bruno doesn’t think that makes him an all-time great
He told DAZN that Fury would not have lasted back in his heyday of the 1980s and 1990s.

“I wish Tyson fury the best but he knows deep down in his heart that if he was around in the days that I was younger I would eat him for dinner and breakfast as well. I’m not going to sit here and disrespect him but we’re talking about the era I’ve been through, he’s living in a different cloud to what cloud I was on.”
Bruno lived during a time when the likes of Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson were world champions. He fought both Hall of Famers but recently revealed that in fact it was fellow champion James “Bonecrusher” Smith who hit harder than both of them.
