    To be fair, I think most are referring to Fury when making that argument. He is someone who CAN actually box, and would use his size to an advantage.

    But then again Cunningham who is levels below Ali in every department gave Fury issues with his slickness and mobility. Fury has improved but again, Ali is significantly better. There is nothing Cunningham does that is better than Ali. Or even Holmes. And Fury has yet to fight a small heavyweight again like Usyk or Hunter

    He sounds like when he commits it's all business, even trained away from his family. I wouldn't worry about that kind of stuff.

    Aside from everything else, there weren't any good southpaw HW's back then. Usyk is totally unique.

    I don't think that you can have been watching the same fight as me.

    If you did not appreciate Usky's performance, then good boxing is probably wasted on you!

    I compare the two because they are too sharp for the game. And trying to stop them is near impossible.

    He fought the wrong fight against Ruiz first time around, he fought the wrong fight against Usyk.

    Same comparison could be made with Fury and Chuvalo, Terrell....

    Depends what you call serious. Banks, Cooper and Wepner? Were they any less serious that Cunningham?

    His head movement and speed was like Ali`s, plus he took some good right hands from AJ, Ali`s chin would have taken`s AJ`s power too.

    Agreed that theory is ****ing ridiculous but I think 95% of boxing fans know that.

    Holyfield in his prime would clean the **** out of this division.
