Frazier doesn't have Wilder's height and reach which could make it a lot more difficult to land effectively on Fury given the massive disparity in...
With rehydration and early weigh ins guys that weigh 220 even 225 can make cruiserweight. We see many examples in lighter divisions of guys doing...
Except it isn't. Tyson, Moorer, Mercer, etc could all have made cruiserweight easily given fighters routinely rehydrate 20 pounds so someone who...
Had Usyk campaigned exclusively at heavyweight he would have been giving away a lot more size than Holyfield did in his prime. With a few...
Klitschko and Fury have ability and athleticism to go with their size. Moreover when Holyfield moved up in 1988 Valuev wasn't a factor. Valuev...
With the exception of Lewis I don't see any of the big guys he fought as being anywhere near as capable as Fury or Klitschko. And many could make...
Many of the top heavyweights of Holyfield's era could make cruiserweight with early weigh ins including Tyson, Moorer, Mercer, etc. Tyson is no...
The heavyweights of Holyfield's day were basically cruiserweights though they were in no way comparable size-wise to a guy like Fury so its a...
Why? Holyfield has better resume depth but that is offset to some degree by some pretty bad losses whereas Usyk never lost in his prime.
He's not the consensus GOAT H2H anymore. Lewis seems to have taken that spot. Baer's era had Joe Louis who in terms of accomplishments matches Ali.
Frazier would probably rate as the third best heavyweight of his era. In many eras that's not seen as greatness. I'd rate Baer the third best of...
Ortiz has a very unimpressive resume. I don't see how we can reasonably cite that as an impressive win for Wilder given Ortiz spectacular lack of...
Sorry but Wilders resume doesn't back up that assessment. You can believe what you want but his win resume doesn't separate him from the pack....
Wilder has a very thin resume. It's not surprising that Fury beating him isn't seen as a big accomplishment given we don't know how good Wilder is.
Usyk has fought far more world class opponents than Fury given his work at cruiserweight. Fury has somehow missed out on most of the top guys at...
