Battle of the awful, technically hopeless, lumbering giants. Fought over 12 rounds with modern rules and gloves. As many have noted Tyson Fury "may as well have been brought through a time machine taking him from the 20's right into the current era with his **** poor style" so let's actually match Fury up against a similar type of fighter from that era, step forward the Tyson Fury prototype Jess Willard. I see this as a real 50/50 fight that could go either way. I slightly favour Fury though in this one due to his Gypsy never say die attitude. Who you got? This content is protected
If Fury fought from any date in history before Sonny Liston he would be the UNDEFEATED, UNDISPUTED, 25 yr reign with 145 defenses, ATG HWCotW. Then again, so would Julius Long. Either one KO1 Jess Willard:deal
Willard was a good boxer during his time but he was just a Cowboy who started boxing at almost 30 years old. Shows how much times have changed in boxing.
Valuev would reign up til Ali outpointed him. He couldve went 233(233)-1(0) from 1927-1967 reigning from his 13th Bday till his 53rd
