However, he added that Fury has a lot of potential, and if marketed in the right way, he could make heavyweight history with some epic matches. Dana White expressed an inability to understand why Tyson Fury would prefer to be part of MMA and get smashed rather than rule the boxing world. He said that Fury could become one of the greats.
