    I think with these measurements come pros and cons, but which heavies past or present have come nearest to matching these measurements or out-doing them and how do they compare in terms of movement, speed, power and fundamentals?

    I don't know, but you failed to mention his clavicle length which is important when it comes to frame. And I bet Joshua's clavicle length is nothing special compared to other tall heavyweights.

    Should have been a bodybuilder....

    Fury has a naturally bigger frame. Bigger chest without a single muscle on his back or chest.

    Big poppa is going to ragdoll him around.

    Big biceps are totally worthless in boxing. They actually work against you. Eric Morales never lifted a weight in his life.

    Fury`s biceps don`t look 17 inches though aside from in his rematch with Wilder.

    First time in his career he's put on muscle, prior he always looked to drop weight in camps.

    Debut at 260 pounds but is now a bigger man not a 21 year old kid. Finally understands he doesn't need to be slim. A 270 pound monster.

    Pretty much all other heavyweights try to put on size by any means necessary.

    Big is better now because all the amateur pedigree and skill has gone.

    Those biceps can't be flexed surely, 17" isn't even that big

    Plenty of heavyweights would have bigger, heck Anthony Yarde must have bigger

    I'm like 6ft 200lbs and have 16.5" arms (although not the best conditioned at the moment lol)

    I used to be well conditioned at about 175lbs, and my arms were still 15.5"
