Ok... so how do you look at it?
On what?
You wouldn't favor him against Basilio?
Agree! To suggest that Fury, possibly the best heavyweight today, isn't even an elite fighter... well, that's very difficult to take seriously!
I'm one of those types who call BS on those who come on here, with the sole mission to bash the present.
So those with a belief that differs from your opinion are simply wrong! Have you really no idea, how silly that is?
A thread about one-round fluke wins - and no one has mentioned Flynn ko1 Dempsey!
So if there are people out there who look at Fury, and believe they are watching an elite fighter - they are factually wrong? Is that what you're...
Is there an objective method to VISIBLY determine, that Fury isn't an elite fighter?
Out of curiosity… where would you place Fury and Wlad? Are they elite fighters - or do they belong in tier 2 or 3?

I believe Walker was 20, when he became world champion. Also, at 20 David Benavidez is the youngest champ at SMW.
Terry McGovern first beat the top man, Pedlar Palmer, for the bantamweight crown - and then later the top man at feather, George Dixon, for that...
If I have learned one thing in my 10 years here - it is to take the opinion of old-timers (fans, trainers, reporters or the boxers themselves)...
