The promoter compared Tyson Fury to Muhammad Ali

Frank Warren, head of promotion company Queensberry Promotions, said during a recent interview that Tyson Fury is currently the most popular athlete in the world. The functionary also compared the Briton with the legendary Muhammad Ali.

“I have no doubt that Tyson is probably the most recognizable and popular athlete on the planet right now. He went beyond boxing and in terms of personality he can be compared to Muhammad Ali. His external activities only contribute to the growth of his popularity and recognition. His Netflix series achieved the highest ratings in the UK, and three of his books quickly reached the bestseller category.”
