    If AJ has a chance for that, he definitely wants to swap his resume with Fury.

    Second deepest resume
    Zero losses and one BS draw
    Beating opponents more than one
    Higher ATG place

    Thoughts?

    I doubt it, considering he already has 1 of Fury's 2 good wins on his resume. I'm no fan of AJ's, never will be. But if we're being honest here, AJ's resume, even with the losses, ****s all over Fury's. I mean, let's see....


    Would I rather have.....
    Klitschko
    Povetkin
    Parker
    Ruiz
    Whyte
    Pulev
    Takam
    Breazeale
    Molina
    Martin

    2 losses, to Ruiz and Usyk

    Or...
    Klitschko
    Wilderx2
    Chisorax2
    Wallin
    Hammer
    Schwarz
    Pianeta

    ...draw against Wilder.


    I think the answer is pretty obvious.

    Of course he does.

    No amount of Pulevs, Takams, Molinas, Breazeales, Martins, Parkers, Povetkins, Rice Puddings.... could ever compare with Fury's top level wins, on the road.

    And Wallin, Seferi & Schwarz are exactly whsys needed for a resume NOT to have puddings in, correct?

    WHich are what exactly? They both have Wlad on their resumes, that leaves.... Wilder. So are you saying that 1 Wilder is worth more than Povetkin, Parker, Ruiz, Whyte and Takam?

    He's beaten Wilder thrice - nice omission.

    Yes, I am.

    Povetkin was old and never a world champion anyway - had just been dropped by David fecking Price.
    Parker - absolutely useless pudding who came with zero ambition.
    Rice Pudding Jr - pudding.
    Whyte - you've told me that Whyte is crap, what's changed?
    Takam - Takam hasn't beaten anybody in his entire career.

    Beating Wilder three times is clearly worth more than beating this shower of **** and losing once along the way to a morbidly obese midget on short notice.

    Not a single 50-50 matchup in that list.

    Maybe he does, but if he has to give up the wealth his own resume brought him, probably not, lol.

    Fury's.

    History books will show Fury dethroned Wlad. There's no comparison between his win over Wlad and AJ's in terms of historical or resume significance. Fury dethroned the long-reigning great Klitschko in Klitschko's adopted backyard. The fight was crap, and Wlad was old, but the achievement stands. Fury ended the Klitschko era.

    Both of them are weak resumes, compared to great resumes. But getting battered by Ruiz Jr. is shocking.

    Fury beat Chisora twice, and beat Wilder three times in reality.
    Most of AJ's wins are Chisora-level at best. Parker and Ruiz (who battered AJ) are Chisora-level. Takam is perhaps sub-Chisora level.
    Takam is probably on par with Cunningham, if that.

    He has a points win over a 42 year old Tony Thompson, to be fair. Back in 2014.

    Huge win - fair enough.

    A young and motivated Thompson is a handful for anyone. A man who has to be respected with his marquee wins over David Price.

    What is Ruiz's best win outside of KO7 Joshua?
    I like Ruiz but that loss is a major blemish on the resume .... and Joshua shouldn't get a bonus for beating a guy like that simply because he lost to him first, that makes no sense.

    Klitschko
    Wilderx2
    Chisorax2
    Wallin
    Cunningham
    Hammer

    He actually has better resume than AJ. He beat prime Chisora twice, ended Klitschko's domination and beat the crap out of Wilder twice. Wallin schooled Breazeale, he is also great win. Cunningham was skillful former CW and Hammer was good fighter.

    Note: He actually beat Wilder three times.

    Fury beat the man in the division on away soil twice. Not even comparable

    Who is Rice Pudding? Are you 12? Who omitted that he face Wilder three times? I stated in my above post. Povetkin went on to beat Hughie and Whyte... spare me. Whyte is crap compared to Wilder, AJ, Usyk, Hunter and Fury. But he's still Top 10, rightfully. Takam sure as hell beat Gashi a lot more convincingly than Chisora, beat Forrest and Zhang didn't, deserved the win against Perez. Is he great? No, but he's certainly better than goddamn Schwarz and Hammer.

    Yes, I think Wilder KO's Joshua. But we're not talking about hypotheticals, we're talking about facts, and the fact is, Wilder had Ortizx2, Arreola, Breazeale, Stivernex2, Duhaupas, Breazeale, Szpilka, Washington on his resume. Which is pretty goddamn dreadful. Based solely on resume, AJ's is better than both Wilder and Fury. It's okay, it won't kill you to admit that. I can't stand AJ, and I can. Hell, I hate Canelo and think Golovkin beat him twice, but I'd take Canelo's resume over Golovkin's in a heartbeat if given the choice.
