Tommy Fury didn't hesitate when ranking Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis and brother Tyson Fury

Tommy Fury didn't hesitate when ranking his brother Tyson Fury among heavyweight legends like Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis.

Tommy returns to action on January 18 when he faces former UFC star Darren Till at Manchester's Co-op Live.

He was involved in a fiery launch press conference with his opponent as 'Big' John Fury erupted, with the media event descending into chaos.

John took exception to Till's comments about Tyson, who surrendered the WBC world heavyweight title to Oleksandr Usyk in their undisputed showdown last year.

But Tommy still believes his brother is the best heavyweight boxer on the planet.

Speaking to The Daily Mail, he played 'winner stays on', with a slew of boxing legends included in the game.

Asked to pick between Lewis and 'Iron' Mike, Tommy opted for the latter: "Like I say, when he still had the old man... Mike Tyson," he said, referring to legendary coach Cus D'Amato.

He then sided with his sibling against the iconic American.

"I know what everyone's gonna say... oh you're biased.. this and all that, but you got to put into play Mike Tyson was five foot nine and Tyson's six foot and nine... you have to factor that in.... Tyson's not a sloppy six foot nine guy either."

Unsurprisingly, Tommy also picked the self-proclaimed 'Gypsy King' against Usyk.

The 58-year-old, meanwhile, who returned to the ring against Jake Paul, is backing his namesake to do the business when he rematches the Ukrainian champion next month.

"Usyk is the best heavyweight in the world at the moment," he told The Daily Mail. "But I’m going for Fury to beat him. Why? Because I’m a fan. Because his father gave him my name. I’m not abandoning him now."
