According to the report on UK Sun, Frank Warren explained that he rates Tyson Fury as the best because of his incredible performances so far in the game.

Frank Warren's reaction

"I put Tyson No1, he’s head and shoulders above all of them. He’s a magnificent champion and he would be up there with the greats from all eras, he stands with them.
"I’ll be a bit biased and we promote Joe Joyce who’s the WBO No1 and we are also involved with Daniel Dubois who is the No1 in the WBA.
"Then you’ve got Usyk, so we saw what he did with Anthony Joshua and then you’ve got Dillian Whyte.
"So, if you want me to put them in order Tyson is No1, Usyk No2 and I think the other three you can all them joint as far as I see it.
"I don’t think Dillian has the beating of the other two guys. We made offers for him to fight them which he didn’t take. Anthony Joshua, I think he comes in at No 6 now."
