    Sooner or later he would be stopped, because of his unhealthy lifestyle and mental health issues. He will decline soon. He will dominate but not for long.

    well he’s currently the man at the minute but that won’t be rubber stamped until he beats aj. He needs that win.

    he would 100% be the man in wlads era. We had valuev, Ruiz an ancient Holyfield doing the wba pass the parcel for heavens sake lol

    Right now think AG is the only one with a hope. Got tagged in the Ruiz 1st fight but think he underestimated the power Ruiz can offload if you stand and plant your feet inside/mid range ish. For all his critics AG has a lot in his bag these days learning every fight. If Tyson fights the same game plan as against wilder he will take all the belts. Don't see it being as one sided tho as AG can actually box.

    Fury would a force in any era just his shear size. Not slating Ali had skills undeniably. But at 15 stone at 6.3 feet think it would be much more an uphill struggle these days. Don't take that the wrong way just pointing it out

    He needs to fight a decent boxer in his prime. A victory over Windmill Wilder means nothing. Wallin almost TKOed him for Christ’s sake

    He beat a guy who he had 40 pounds on 5 inches of reach on and absolutely zero versatility or ring iq. Furys good, potentially great but don't be a prisoner of the moment, Lennox Lewis would kill him and he is a 50/50 fight against any big man with a punch and some boxing ability

    Funny how people re-write narratives. Most people before the fight had Wilder stopping Fury, and yet he was dominated and stopped himself. And by dominating a boxer people thought would KO him, suddenly that victory is meaningless. But you'll hang your hat on a TKO that never happened. Some people.....

    based on the polls I saw the majority of people predicted a Tyson victory .
