At this point, WBC champion Tyson Fury seems unbeatable in the heavyweight division. It’s unfair to label someone invincible in the big boy’s club. However, Fury has amassed enough to gain such momentum at his side. Having knocked out Deontay Wilder twice in a row, he is now in a position to move at will. Although his upcoming opponent Dillian Whyte can offer a tough fight, Fury looks favorable to topple ‘The Body Snatcher’ unless we are in for a massive upset on the way.

Wilder troubled Fury for some brief period in their trilogy fight. Besides, Otto Wallin made ‘The Gypsy King’ bleed profusely in 2019. These were some of the toughest encounters in Fury’s career. But trainer Sugar Hill Steward positioned himself over anyone.

On being asked about Fury’s toughest potential opponent, Steward said, “Me, yeah. Keep this simple. I am the toughest fight for [Tyson] Fury”.

Technically, it’s fair of Sugar Hill Stewards to say so. He has been the mastermind behind Tyson Fury’s boxing drills and recent successful fights. Nevertheless, the cheek response wasn’t aimed to take anything away from Fury, who is sitting at the top spot of the current heavyweight division.

A few years back, very few had envisioned Tyson Fury regaining his championship status after he went into a long hiatus. But Fury silenced his critics and is back to being where he truly belongs. Still undefeated, Tyson Fury is now capable of cherry-picking his opponents. That said, he is still eager to test himself against the A-listers.

Tyson Fury is the heavyweight boss of combat

Apart from the boxing chain, Tyson Fury is also influencing martial artists with his constant antics. He sparked the possibility of a crossover fight between him and UFC champion Francis Ngannou somewhere down the line. But the heavyweight circle in boxing can still offer A-listed opponents for ‘The Gypsy King’.

It may begin with Dillian Whyte challenging him for the WBC belt. Queensberry Promotions has already bagged the rights to host the fight with a record-breaking $41 million purse bid on board. Following that, an undisputed title fight can also allure Tyson Fury to stick in the sport of pugilism. However, Dillian Whyte is in a position to shatter all those plans by landing a shocking win over ‘The Gypsy King’.
