    Achievement wise, absolutely!

    But anyone else think both are vulnerable and there's people out there who could beat them? Hrgovic, Jalolov, Zhang come to mind.

    Absolutely I still think Usyk has alot of proving to do and H2H wise he's overrated at Heavyweight, fighters like Zhang, Wilder, would be very dangerous fights for him.

    Fury has proven himself a bit more at Heavyweight but at this stage of his career fighters like Joshua, Zhang, Hrgovic, are all dangerous fights.

    Hrgovic is trash though. He robbed old man Zhang and his only success against Zhang came because of Zhangs gas tank - Zhang was controlling the fight otherwise

    If Zhang is so good, why did he wait until 40 to step up? Doesn't make sense if they could have had a Chinese champion for the last ten years or so, making millions of dollars.

    Usyk is.

    Fury is trash, along with his repugnant fanboys.

    It's hard to say because we haven't seen enough good fights, the division is strong, but we don't have the kind of fights that should happen...

    There's a lot of guys that would have beaten Ngannou Fury.

    Sorry no...
    Joshua's resume pisses all over Fury's.

    Not to say necessarily that he'd beat him, but on achievements it's not close at all.

    'Imagine if Wilder actually had skill'

    Meet Jalolov, a Southpaw Wilder with skill
