    His resume is pretty dismal.
    But, yeah, still better than the resume of any other active heavyweight.

    The heavyweight divison these days is a bit of a joke.
    Tyson Fury is the best fighter and he threw away almost 3 years of his prime for no good reason. He's been pro 12 years and has a couple of very good wins and the rest is rubbish.

    The division is full of old men, aging men and average plodders.

    Where are all the 24, 25, 26, 27 year old heavyweight contenders ??

    Klitschko = 11 year undefeated
    Wilder = stopped ortiz who stopped allen faster than whyte
    Chisora = beat whyte
    Hammer = beat yoka

    He has the best resume only if you ever bought into the hype of Whyte/Parker which has now been proven to be false. better than Wilders, not so sure about better than Furys

    Klitschko = was clearly old fighting fury. Fury himself acknowledged this. Klitschko himself performed better and used more in his arsenal against Aj. His brother confirmed this.
    Wilder = barely survied Old man ortiz and he got outboxed by fury who was coming off years of abusing his body with drugs and got whooped by david haye in sparring
    Chisora = got beat by whyte twice
    Hammer = lost to wach, povetkin, and ortiz and didnt he loose to yoka ? Lmao

    Aj already beat Parker, AJ himself is young as well.

    AJ has a deeper resume, he has fought more top 10 heavyweights but Fury has the two best wins.

    Fury beating Wlad in Germany and the way he beat him so comfortably was far better than AJ's up and down win.

    And Wilder, AJ for whatever reason didn't do it first, Fury did, the biggest punching heavyweight and Fury went abroad again, in to his opponents backyard and won again and won in style.


    AJ went to his opponents backyard once, Ruiz, got beaten up.

    Like this and A.J fans bragging about Povetkin and Klitshko wins....they in their prime had steamrolled :bumpA.J like a pupp because he is a pupp.
    A.J is a pupp that will defend his tittle vs 39 y.o old Pulev.
    He is not better than Wilder there.:D
    He must defend his status and tittle vs Fury in unification fight.:(
    Not against old uncles. :bananaride

    I don't really get what you're saying, do you disagree with me?


    Furys resume isn't deeper than AJ's but Fury has the better wins.. I believe that's a fair comment.

    Ofc and there not language is a problem.

    Ofc on paper looks nice, until getting Povetkin and Klitschko age etc obstacles.
    This is :D:D:D.
    Then A.J had...... fight vs Ruiz.
    He is not far from Wilder and MUST prove his credentials in fight vs Fury.
    If this is so big problem, he must fight in row other guys from top 5 quickly.

    Maybe.
    Not enough old Ruiz already exposed A.J as a pupp and point win in rematch is not enough here.
    Does he have balls to fight with someoene younger like Fury and Wilder? Ruiz III.
    Or like 39 y.o Pulev? How predictable and nice fight for A.J. I will not waste time to watch this, he will defeat Pulev .
    BORING A.J and eddie is ****in boring dude too.
