Tyson Fury's sparring partner Alen Babic has claimed that the Gypsy King is NOT the best heavyweight in world boxing - instead handing that crown to fellow British star Joe Joyce.
Fury takes on Derek Chisora at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday evening in what will be a battle of the Brits, with Fury looking for his third victory over 'Del Boy' after beating him in 2011 and 2014. With a potential bout with Anthony Joshua falling through due to a multitude of reasons, fans were reasonably dismayed at the decision which has seen the duo long considered the top two in the nation fail to face one another.
But with the fight on the horizon and as Fury's sparring partner for the bout, Babic has claimed that the two-time world heavyweight champion is not the best in his weight class, with Joyce his choice as the best in the UK and the world.
