    Two ways of doing this first prime Mike v all of Fury`s opponents if he could have fought during this era and how would he have fared against Fury`s resume if he had been born tyhe same year as Fury?

    I'd say he chins them all Mark.

    Prime Wlad may have been a different story.

    You ever been on holiday in a category A, Mark?

    Just because someone can bash everyone The Daddy does it doesn't mean they've got what it takes to bash The Daddy

    Wlad would school him

    & if Mike fought Wilder in 3 fights, Wilder would KO him in one of the three.

    No he wouldn't. He would need to land on a bobbing and weaving Mike who would do Wilder in 1 round.

    Mike beats them all.
    But across 14:year career and change of trainer many times and depression and drugs and overweight and out of the game for almost 3 years at peak??
    Actually, no. Mike can't do what Fury do. He would come unstuck, get beat.
    And Fury can't do what Mike do. He wouldn't have focus at young age to do the schedule of 1986 / 88
    Different men.

    Prime Iron Mike obliterates anyone Fury has ever fought.

    Prime Wlad - Depends if the ref allows him to treat Mike the same way he treat Povetkin, but no way will Wlad be able to avoid Mike's punches, and it could be over very quickly.

    He did come out of the game for three years at his peak?

    But he had fought a schedule not too far off (or perhaps even exceeding) Fury's whole career before he lost to Douglas. He just lived on fast forward.

    Yes that is my thoughts. He couldn't do it the way Fury did it. He couldn't get better at the same points in time as Fury did. But what he did was the other extreme, which Fury can't do. They both are great but they are very different careers.

    Yes and he came back worse. Also he already lost before going out of the game to prison. He never got better after first two or three years of career.

    Even if Wlad was allowed to use his most cancerous style, Mike chins him. Far too quick and powerful.
