    Given his height and weight makes it even more remarkable

    You got fighters like ali but ali was small compared to fury it doesnt make it special................


    Honestly i dont think any heavyweight fighter in history moved like this man.............

    He's so elusive he's only been knocked down about 5 times and cut to shreds once. Incredible.

    No he has world class movement for his SIZE, however can sometimes be clumsy and also makes mistakes often where he is caught

    I think because he is so large and moves well it gets extra points, but certainly not the best. Probably top 10

    Tyson Fury moves like Jagger.
    I like how his face moved into Otto Wallins left hook that caused a fight ending cut.
    That's some world class stuff.

    Was Usyk not hit by Briedes? Lomachenko never caught by Campbell? Inoue not hurt by Donnaire? This is boxing.

    Someone with excellent upper body movement and reflexes with elite footwork would be vitali K.

    also I would put probably Byrd above fury

    There's a good 6/7 HWs with better movement than Fury.

    I think you nailed it when you mentioned his size. He moves really well for a guy his size.

    I dont think he moves as well as a prime Ali. Ali was a tall HW in his day but not so much by today's standards.

    Fury's height, reach, reasonable quickness and ability to move make him a challenge when he's at his best. He can somewhat decide when to engage and when not to.

    He's lazy though and a bit of a goof so he is inconsistent in the ring.

    All that being said, I'm predicting Wilder lands at some point and takes him out.

    I would say top 10 is a fair assessment
