    Putting him outside of the top 30 is just trolling so I'm not putting that as an option. But also top 5 would be too high, so just top 10 is an option.

    People seem to love to hate on Fury now (partly to discredit Usyk) but his win over Wlad is one of the biggest shocks and iconic changing of the guard moments in HW history, he did what no one else could do for over a decade

    And his wins over the extremely dangerous prime Wilder were brilliant. Especially the 2nd fight, what a performance that was.. and fighting on the front foot which no one expected him to do.

    Also gave arguably the GOAT Usyk his toughest and closest fights.

    Fury is clearly a great HW. But whereabouts would you rank him?

    Outside the top 30. Not trolling at all, his resume is horrible. Care to debate me on this? I’ll post 30 hws with better resumes, if you want.

    @JunlongXiFan beating the great Wlad in germany alone is probably enough to to be better than the guys you have from 25 to 30

    Wlad was on a 22 fight unbeaten run, 20 fights of those world title fights, spanning nearly 12 years.

    Said this when the same question was asked in 2021. Since then, my opinion has dipped even more concerning Fury and ATG conversations. I think he probably will get into the HOF though......................deserving nah, getting in.............probably.

    It gets very subjective very quickly after Ali and Louis, so he could be anywhere 25-35, or even lower.

    Top 15 - 20. Most people hate him purely because they hate him as a person or to discredit Usyk tbh but as a fighter there's no question he was very good but sadly people have trouble separating the art from the artist as they say.

    When looking at all time lists I try to take account achievements and H2H, H2H Fury would be a strong favourite over a large number of the top 25 for me, however achievements wise, hes lack of activity and defenses damage him a lot. I'd say you could certainly make an argument for top 15.

    So realistically if Fury came back and got another decent win or 2 could he break your top 10?

    putting him outside the top 30 is where any honest, non brit should rank him. calling him clearly a great is the obvious trolling.

    can't get another without getting the first of his career first.
