Fury can be a little sloppy on the inside, that's where Lennox was really good and could rip upper cuts.
You can have a resume 100 x better than SRR's and Harry Greb's and sport a 1000-0-0 (1000 KOs) record but it means nothing if there is a man born from their mother who can beat you. All the other HW greats lost sans Marciano and the GOAT Tyson Fury would never lose to the fighters who beat them in a million years and he sure as hell ain't losing to a stumpy leprechaun with the reach of a baby kangaroo like Marciano This is why Fury is the GOAT
I voted Fury as Lennox spent his formative years in Canada, fought for them for the olympics, and calls Jamaica his homeland. He went to the UK to make his money, as Fury went to America.
Fury = number 1 Lennox got KO'd by two bums and was getting his ass beat by vitali. (plus is he even british) Fury is super skilled, versatile, undefeated and always finds a way to win. His win over the great Wlad klitschko who dominated for over a decade is better than any Lennox win
Pay close attention Tyson ''The Gypsy King'' Fury's powers of prophecy are second to none An 18 y/o Fury Timestamped This content is protected ''2013 British champion'' - check. He achieved that in 2011 ''2014 European champion'' - check. Won the Euro title that year. ''2016 Undisputed HW champion'' - became the three-belt unified champion in 2015 and would've won the WBC by 2016 had the gypsy haters not frame an innocent gypsy man who is as pure in heart and soul as a child for a crime he did not commit And Fury did belatedly add the final piece of the jigsaw when he annexed the WBC strap from a dosser This content is protected And back in 2013 also prophesied that he would knockout said dosser and that has now come to pass x 2 This content is protected Listen to every word This content is protected And now this This content is protected
Lewis is far ahead. Fury would need to become undisputed and dominate for a while to even be in this discussion.
Might have to change my pick of Lewis to big John McDermott...seen as he's the only man to beat the mercurial boxing wunderkind and heavyweight goat Tyson fury.... **** my life lol
Not really seeing the point comparing the McDermott fight. Fury was just 21 years. It was pro fight number 8. Fury less experienced. Lennox Lewis is getting stopped by Valery Abadzhan in the amateurs at same age. Lewis had lot more amateur international experience than Fury before turning professional, even more of gap in experience if you want compare Lewis v Mercer against McDermott fight. It is not serious comparison.
Hard to see past Lewis. If Fury hadn’t lost 3 years to addiction, it could be much closer on paper LEWIS 41-2-1 (32 KO) 15-2-1 in world championships World champions beaten 12 Era defining wins - Tyson, Holyfield, Klitschko, Tua, Bruno, Mercer, Ruddock, Golota, Briggs, Morrison, Grant and Tucker FURY 32-0-1 (23 KO) 3-0-1 in world championships World champions beaten 3 Era defining wins - Klitschko, Wilder, Whyte, and Chisora
With the same reasoning, Fury has been knocked down 4 times by a failed football/basketball player who started boxing at 21 years old : - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deontay_Wilder#Personal_life This content is protected
