    Axel Schultz, Frans Botha or Vaughn Bean didn't knock out any of the champs in 2 and 5 rounds did they?

    Even then, pinning him still with his elbow in a cheat move, he STILL couldn't KTFO him.

    Fury is kind of a contender but mainly because of his popularity. Beating Christian Hammer just doesn't do it.:bart Let's see him get wins over opponents like Pulev, Stiverne, Wach, Povetkin, Thompson---at least one of them.:bbb

    Cunningham and Chisora are better fighters than Stiverne.

    How can Fury not be a contender when Wilder is a Champ?.

    You're dislike for the man runs so deep , you can't even acknowledge his status a contender.

    cunningham hasn't one decent win at hw. he has no power. yet he flattened fury. had him staggering for a round or two.

    He beat Huck who spanked Povetkin around like a stuffed man.

    Stiverne is a backward fighter. He can't fight on the front foot.

    Chisora , Cunningham , Hammer are all front foot fighters and Fury handled them with ease.

    Other than a fat and old Stiverne fighting out of his comfort zone . Wilder has beaten nobody

    Actually he doesn't. As sad as it is Wilder's lone win over Stiverne is better than anything Fury has done :lol::rofl

    3-4 good wins over good ranked contenders is better than a win over a bum who won a vacant paper belt.

    He probably beat him, but it would be by decision in a slow boring fight. Jmo.
