    Most of us want to see Fury & AJ get it on,best fight that could be made @ H/W.
    Man you don't like Fury do you.

    I'm also very suspicious of Fury.
    His opposition is very poor and pro boxers usually know how good they are. If he prefers fighting C minus level bums there's something wrong with him.
    He got Wlad when he was way past it.
    Wilder in the rematch was slow and could be past it as well, but even prime Wilder was mediocre.

    According to your "standards" all the top HWs are bum beaters. I could make the same case for Wilder, AJ, and the rest of the top HWs.

    If you think so poorly of the current HW div. why are you getting all worked up about it? Maybe a new hobby is in order.

    Hes not a hype job but honestly he is getting kinda overrated over the wilder win when wilders resume is pretty mediocre. No better than kubrat pulevs and he's been hurt by bums. But the klitschko win is pretty damn big. If he had taken the klitschko rematch and beat him again i wouldn't question his resume what so ever.

    AJ's best win is against an even older Wlad and he struggled mightily to do that

    Good thing about this Fury overrated/underrated is that 2 fights with Joshua settles it.

    Best of a bad area. He isnt the second coming but Wald and Wilder x2 more than make up for the threadbare resume aside

    His resume is thin. No getting away from that, but I reckon he can back it up. And he’ll have to now. Fighting deontay wilder eleventy five times won’t cut it.

    On a scale of 1-10 he’s about a 6.

    Fury is the best HW out there, until proven otherwise.
    To suggest he is not worthy of that designation is absolutely ludicrous.

    I still can't tell if he is good or lucky.
    Vs klit, it was obvious that Klit was not himself in that fight & in the end, it was very close.
    Vs Wilder 1, I think he Fury was lucky to get a draw. He landed a handful more punches, but the better & harder punches were landed by Wilder, as evidenced by Fury ending up on his ass twice, & lucky not to be counted out on the second knockdown.
    Vs Wider 2, he completely dominated & beat up Wilder. It was one of the best heavyweight performances since Holyfield v Tyson.
    So yeah, I dont know. But he is definitely overhyped by some on here, calling him the Goat etc ignoring his very thin resume.
    I dont know who would win between Fury vs AJ, but it this stage I think AJ has the better record by a mile.
