    ON record before the fight I stated this
    "Wlad is old a ****.. if Fury beats him how much credit does he really deserve? If you dont think prime Wlad would have killed Jennings ydksab, age matters, even Tyson said so himself. Now I'm picking Wlad to win, but if he doesn't it does nothing to tarnish his career at age 39 he's still dominating the youngns, if Fury wins, good for him, he's the #1 HW but really the win will be blown way out of proportion."

    "Hatton-Zoo isnt really overrated in 2015 though, I rarely see people give him too much credit for that win. Trust me Wlad/Tyson would be on a different level of overrated win if Tyson wins, since Wlad is on a 10 year streak people will completely disregard his age, his struggle against Jennings, and act like he beat a prime Wlad. Some morons will even make an argument for Wlad being far better than he was 10 years ago. Yes Wlad is smarter forsure than before but I'd take his youth over those brains against a heavyweight who doesnt hit hard like Fury."

    A win over Wlad is still a decent win, but let's say Fury beats Joshua, Wilder, Glaskov, etc would you rank him as an ATG if he's dominates the HW division for the next 5 years? Would you rank him above Klitschko? Or would he need a 10 year reign like Wlad, to be mentioned with the best?

    Tyson Fury is already an ATG :smoke
    Deontay Wilder is already an ATG :smoke

    Winner of their fight is the G.O.A.T.

    Ya stop it. He has a long way to go before we put him into the Hall of Fame let alone judge weather or not he's an ATG.

    It all depends if the division gets better. I think he would have to dominate for at least the next 10 years to put him in the disscusion.

    He needs to first beat Wlad again if the rematch happens and go on and beat a Wilder, Povetkin, Joshua, Parker, Haye and other fighters who will appear.

    Let's be honest, there's no chance of that happening.

    Off course it won't, but I think that is how he would have to start.
