"Quite simply the biggest fight in boxing" - Frank Warren breaks down Tyson Fury vs. Dillian Whyte and undercard

Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte will fight on Saturday at the Wembley Arena in London, England. It will reportedly be the highest grossing event in the stadium's history.

Frank Warren, the British boxing promoter, recently wrote an article for Boxing Scene breaking down the Fury-Whyte bout. In his article, Warren called the figt between Fury and Whyte "quite simply the biggest fight in boxing." Warren outlined an interesting detail that is being overlooked in much coverage:

"The status of Lineal champion is also on the line, along with the coveted Ring Magazine heavyweight belt. The famous publication have reminded us all that this is the first time the belt has been defended on UK soil since 1966 when Muhammad Ali defeated Brian London via a third round KO, shortly after Wembley staged England’s World Cup triumph."

With this statement, Warren ranked this upcoming bout alongside some of the greatest in boxing history. When referring to the lineal championship, Warren is establishing a direct line from Tyson Fury through to the greats of the sport - the likes of Muhammad Ali, Joe Louis, Ezzard Charles and Mike Tyson - all the way back to Jack Dempsey.
