    Don't get me wrong, WK didn't do much either. Was WK's low output due to what Fury was doing? Fury fans will say yes. Perhaps they are right. Was it a big win for Fury, yes, career defining. Was it on the level of Ali/Liston 1, I say no. I say the AJ fight will be on the same scale of Ali/Liston because it will set Fury apart from the rest of the bunch, because he'll be the true champ, same as Ali when he won.

    Yeah but at the time beating Wlad made him clear number one with Wlad number two. No one was considered to be able to beat Wlad

    Floyd jib jab clinches his way to a 12UD - "MASTERVCLASS GOAT BEST DEFENSIVE FIGFJHTERE EVAR"

    Fury jib jab (engages Wlad's clinch) to a 12UD - Boring fight, Wlad was old, Wlad had an off night, Fury didn't do anything, Fury is a drug cheat

    Floyd wasn't doing it to men who were held in as high regard as Wlad was.

    Nobody gets in that ring with Wlad and does to him what Fury did. End of. Period. Bow down.

    Not really. There was AJ and Wilder. Then of course the 3 year lay off hurts his position at the time.

    This. It was an awful fight. Very hard to score because so few punches were thrown and landed by both fighters.

    It wasnt hard to score thought. Everyone even Klitchko fans were seeing that fury was winning. Few of them in my home hoped there will be robery and were laughing posibility of it but all of them knew Wladimir didnt win

    Fury outlanded 86 vs 52 punches, he outlanded him in every round. Klitschko was too scared to throw a right hand. Go watch the Rbr here, every decent judge had Fury winning 10 or 11 rounds. Fury walked away in Wlads backyard with a UD, the judges scored it even closer than it was. Absolute schooling by Tyson

    And even for Fury, I think taking on Wilder after 2 tune up fights and coming back from the messed up state he was in a couple months prior is a greater achievement
    Demolishing Wilder in the second bout might also be
    Sure, Wlad is light years ahead of Wilder in terms of skills and as a boxer overall. But him being defeated that night, while a great feat, did not look more impressive than what Fury did to Wilder later on. Just how I see it though

    Oh he deserves lots of credit for dethroning Klitschko.... 10 years ago. But Klitschko was still old against Fury. Fury is nowhere near Klitschko on the all time list that's for sure. The poll is not so bad once I look back at it. They had a point, the performance was overrated

    Always backtracking and tripping over yourself. You've been throwing off on Fury's resume left and right, including his win over Wlad.

    Nah look at the polls, thats the popular opinion right there. The win was elite no one is denying that, but it was 10 years ago, Klitschko was not in his prime i even said it in the opening post and Fury is now well past his prime. What part of this can you not comprehend ?

    Hasim Rahman has a better resume than Tyson Fury, he beat prime Lewis and Sanders who are > Fury and Wilder.

    Not after the Ngannou fight.
    His legacy has been shot by a double barrel shotgun after struggling with an mma fighter and you cannot change reality. Even bums like Makhmudov would flatline Ngannou, I was saying it before aj beat him

    All after the fact, so it means **** all. Conveniently switching narratives when it suits your agenda.

    I might talk out of both sides of my mouth occasionally, but you've carved yourself about 20 new assholes to speak out of.
