But during an Instagram Q&A session this week, Allen insists the 30-year-old will win by ‘KO inside 6.’
And having shared a ring with the likes of Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko as well as the 6ft 9in star, The White Rhino previously told who the heaviest puncher really is.
Allen said: “I’m at British title level but Fury can beat me with one arm tied behind his back. He’s that good.
