    Fury via whitewash is the correct answer.

    Fury by decision, although I'd like to see how well could Jeffries pressure him and attack the body. He never faced someone that large and that good.

    Not that I think he'd win, but fury being so tall with a big belly would actually make it very easy for Jeff to land those body shots once he got past the jab. If Fury isn't in top shape, he'll start to falter very quickly.

    Threads like this and people who think old-school fighters can handle a modern-day 6'8" 270 pound giant who moves like NO MAN before him makes me want to off myself

    RIP Roger Mayweather - Most People Don't Know Sht About Boxing

    Fury would tear his arms off like the 270 pound (skilled) gorilla that he is and feed them to him.

    Corbett run from him, Fury wouldn't run. Corbett for all of his flaws was definitely faster than Fury. Also, Jeffries outboxed Corbett in rematch.

    Corbett ran from him, but he was still in front after23rds
    .Corbett was totally gone when he fought Jeffries the second time, he had eye problems and his seconds had a pre arranged signal ,a palm fan to stop the fight when he got into difficulties.

    God Bless the pioneers of the sport. They were tough as nails, fought under conditions few of us could imagine for scant accolades and payment.

    But let's stop imagining them sharing a ring with the modern marvels.

    Jeffries was an amateur boxer who, because of his lack of skill and native talent, employed an attrition strategy against small, old opponents without a hint of skill beyond wharfbrawling or fencing styled parlour boxing.

    A fighter like Dillian Whyte would destroy him, let alone a unicorn talent like Fury.
