    Best stoppage I can find was over a washed up, blown up Steve Cunningham....Steve Cunningham from the cruisers that is

    Not a top 10 heavyweight. Maybe top 20?

    He's more a TKO stoppage guy.

    I'd question whether USSS was, in fact, washed up at the time though. But it was a bit of a dirty K.O, as Fury almost had his head held in place with one arm when he K.O'd him.

    Tyson “fatso” Fury is one of most overrated boxers ever. He faced two decent opponents one was old and shot and another one can’t box and he couldn't beat either of them convincingly. Also Cunningham floored him and was outboxing him.

    Skills pay the bills and a 40% drug-ravaged inactive muscle atrophied suicidal shell of The Gypsy King's grandfather's shot ghost already took the greatest HW KO artist of his era (granted an abysmal era) to Slick School and he would've unquestionably sparked him out cold had he even been just 10% more.

    yes but the right hand never even had much thump to it and never even travelled back that much and still laid Cunningham out cold

    It's called having every advantage possible
    In order to be confident

    Chisora who went 12 rounds with Vitali was a better stoppage win for Fury than the one over Cunningham.
