Muhammad Ali's grandson believes Tyson Fury is among the best heavyweights ever to have laced up a pair of gloves - but not better than his legendary grandfather.
Nico Ali Walsh is pursuing his own career in the ring and recorded his fourth victory with an explosive second round knockout victory in January. His next test will come this weekend in Las Vegas against Alejandro Ibarra on the undercard of Oscar Valdez's unification clash with Shakur Stevenson.
Ali Walsh believes Fury ranks in the top-five heavyweights of all time after his victory over Dillian Whyte last weekend. "Tyson Fury, he's one of my idols," he told Sky Sports. "I truly think he ranks among the greatest heavyweights of all time. I think he's a top-five heavyweight of all time. I didn't say No.1. Nobody can beat my grandfather.
