    Fury’s got such an economical and slick style I can see him fighting for decades more. Hardly takes any punishment and when he does recovers in an instant

    Yes. He'll fight in bursts. He's already had two, distinct careers in boxing. He'll probably have a couple more.

    He'll retire numerous times and come back.

    He is as likely a candidate as any to break Foreman's record of being the oldest to win a heavyweight title.

    I'm not sure he can live that long.

    He's falling apart now, which is why he only wants Chisora and Ngannnou.

    Absolutely not. He's ready to leave the sport now to avoid Usyk, no way he'd box another 15 years.

    Most definitely. He will have one more fight in his 30's, then spend 10 years saying " big announcement coming", fight once in his forties then one more at 50 vs Jake Paul.

    If the correct type of opponent holding a belt came when Fury is in his 40's he'd make a comeback to beat them using his size and endurance...he wouldn't be able to use power though like Foreman did against Moorer...and his feet would be much slower but I assume this opponent would have slow feet anyway.

    Fury's joints are shot and so are Usyk's.

    Wilder can keep going to his mid 40's with ease

    Not a chance, ridiculous question. Give your head a wobble.

    I doubt he'll have a fight in 23 so for me he isn't active now.

    No, the man treats his body like a trash can most of the time and I’m pretty sure all those Wilder knockdowns aren’t something any human can just brush off as the years go by. If he keeps fighting Chisora and crappy mma fighters he might be able to pull it off though.

    He'll be fighting when he's 50. But he'll be fighting exhibitions against the likes of Shannon Briggs, Sugar Valuev and Jerry Seinfeld.
