    Lennox Lewis would bomb Fury back to the stone age.

    Don’t need one from the past, Usyk will give him a beating. Lennox Lewis though to answer the question

    I’d make Usyk a solid favourite over Frazier

    Ali would slice him to ribbons.

    Bowe beats Fury. Rather easily if I´m honest.

    Oh and I can say that Fury couldn´t even beat a 0-0 opponent while being the champion.

    Wilder has many faults,but I don't think there is anything wrong with his heart.

    Either version of George Foreman is hideous for Fury. George had a much better jab than people give him credit for and was an expert at cutting the ring down. When Fry wants to clinch and lean on, Foreman will push him off, bang him with the jab and keep him moving when Tyson desperately needs a breather.

    I take George to take Fury out around the ninth.

    I'd also pick Lennox Lewis all day against Fury for similar reasons.

    Ali ? Fury couldn't live with him.

    The man who beat Muhammed Ali would lose to Usyk? Usyk has good skills but he couldn't keep Frazier off him with a blackjack
    He might look good for a few rounds until those body shots take effect.

    Lennox Lewis would take Fury apart.
