Does Tyson Fury's Career To Date Make Him A Hall Of Famer?

Johansson brutally destroyed the undefeated #1 contender Eddie Machen in 1 round and then went and KO'd the world champion Floyd Patterson in 3 rounds.
I'd say that's possibly slightly better than what Fury's done so far with the Wlad and Wilder fights.

Of course, it all went downhill for Johansson when he rematched Patterson, and I expect more from Fury. But as it stands, Fury's probably a shade behind.

 

I think Fury would probably get in anyway, if he retired as he is.

 

He needs more good wins. He was robbed against Wilder, beat old Wlad and beat Chisora. So far pretty thin resume.
He could have taken Wilder rematch, but declined to fight Swartz.

 

Beating Schwarz will certainly put him in there. Afterall, Schwarz is undefeated, so no need to say more actually.

 

Kind of depends on if the hof committee sees his layoff as a triumph of mental health (aka doing less coke) or a forced hiatus due to testing dirty for PEDs.

 

NO

 

Lol this question is from a Brit right? Tyson Fury beat a washed up Wlad by running and only landing 86 punches in 12 rounds. Then he fought unskilled overrated Deontay Wilder and landed 84 punches in 12 rounds. Yep that clearly makes him a Hall of Famer. So Ross Purritty, Corrie Sanders, and Lamon Brewster should be Hall of Famers too. Since they all knocked out a prime Wladimir Klitschko.

 

No way.

 

Face palm

 

I can see Fury as a HOF but first he must fight the best boxers in HWs.
AJ/Whyte & Parker & so on.

 

Is this thread comedy relief?

 

- Ended a reign of almost ten years on the heavyweight category (in a bitter fight but still a great performance).

- Came back after three years of break dominating an undefeated champion with a record filled with KO. For 80% of observers he wins the fight.

We saw worse like HoF.
