Boxing's pound-for-pound king took a part in a Q&A for DAZN ahead of his fight with Dmitry Bivol on Saturday.

Undisputed super middleweight champion Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez believes Tyson Fury could be considered one of boxing's great heavyweights. 

When speaking in a 'Ask Me Anything' session for DAZN, the Mexican highlighted that Fury is someone who has exceptional talent inside the ring. 

"Yeah, why not?" Canelo responded when asked about whether Fury is an all-time great. 

"He's a very good fighter, a lot of talent and he's doing really good things in his career and his legacy."

Canelo returns to action on Saturday when he takes on Dmitry Bivol for the WBA light-heavyweight world title which can be seen live on DAZN (except Mexico and Latin America).
