    I have the list like this

    Fury


    Wilder / Joshua
    Povetkin
    Ortiz
    Whyte
    Parker


    Boxing is still about skills and although he isn't my favorite human being on the planet you cannot take away how much better he is than the rest of the division.

    As styles make fights the only fighter I think can compete with Fury on a boxing level is actually Povetkin who along with Ortiz are so much more natural than Wilder and Joshua.

    Joshua - is not finesse and that jab needs work.

    Wilder - needs to fight less on youtube and more in the ring.

    Peace.

    Im still not 100% sold on Fury. Yeah it was amazing what he did vs Wlad but, in my opinion ofcourse, Wlads mental weakness was exposed more than anything that night. Tysons cousin tried similar tactics against Parker and Parker just chased him around the ring and won. Whats to say Furys twitching doesnt put a Joshua, Wilder, Parker off and they just walk him down. What if that doesnt work? What else can we see from Tyson Furys resume that makes us go wow???? Cuz nobody seemed too wowed by Fury before the Wlad fight and nobody gave him a chance against him based on his previous fights.

    And i love Tyson Fury, cant wait for him to be back. Im just saying it how i see it.

    Totally agree. Fury looked top draw against a WK who's misses was on suicide watch due to severe post natal depression. WK looked totally out of sorts that night, largely due to Fury but, he didn't look in the best shape I've seen him either.

    Prior to that, Fury beat up on a Chisora who looked to have turned up for the pay cheque and had no self belief and Christian Hammer.......

    The likelihood of Fury getting back to his best is remote, Ali had to completely adjust his entire fighting style to compete at the top of the division after a similar layoff, and if Fury found himself doing the same, his whole reason for being so competitive would be nullified.
    I feel his recent 'training' clips have flattered to deceive aswell.
