John Fury has named four of boxing’s greatest ever fighters as dream opponents.

The father of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury is not one to shy away from the limelight.

As a pro boxer he had a modest record of 8 wins, 4 defeats, and 1 draw with only one knockout victory on his record which was actually a retirement due to a shoulder injury according to Boxrec.

But that hasn’t stopped him eyeing up some sort of exhibition with some very dangerous men.

Speaking to GiveMeSport via FreeBets.com he said:

“These are the names I am interested in, Mike Tyson, Evander Holyfield, Roy Jones Jr and maybe George Foreman, but he is 74, and I think I am in better shape than him.

“I said I’d fight them all, and I’d fight them all on that night between Ngannou and Tyson, and we can get straight in the ring afterward. I’ve said it, the world is listening to it John Fury will get them up.”

Would you like to see Fury in the ring and who against?
