Floyd Mayweather snubbed as Eddie Hearn names boxing “GOAT” and Tyson Fury wish
Eddie Hearn snubbed Floyd Mayweather to name multiple-time world welterweight and middleweight champion Sugar Ray Robinson as boxing’s Greatest Of All Time (GOAT) before admitting it “would have been great” to have been part of Tyson Fury’s story.Robinson fought between the 1940s and 1960s, going on a remarkable 91 fight winning streak, and retiring in 1865 with an astonishing 128-1-2 record. His remarkable skills and feats include racking up a breath-taking 84 knockouts and going on an 80 fight winning streak after he lost his first ever bout.His exploits inspired boxing icons Mike Tyson and the late Muhammad Ali, with the latter once labelling him as ‘the King, the master, my idol’.
