    Floyd Mayweather was actually Muhammad Ali in disguise. Greggains's scoring criteria should be adopted as standard by boxing judges. Mike Tyson beat Douglas in Tokyo. Naseem Hamed was a very likable man.

    "Resume is irrelevant." You probably said that before Zhang-Joyce. I guess Joyce beating Parker was supposed to really mean something (good for Joyce).

    Physical attributes plays a role, of course, but mental strength trumps that, something the fanatics of size ALWAYS forget.
    That's why I say Marciano is underrated. He'd give Tyson hell and not quit IMO. That's why I say Marciano is underrated. Mental accuity.

    You may indeed be right on some kind of technical level, but it is a testament to how stupid his post is that it indeed comes close.

    "Right on some technical level" is the best kind of "right." :naughty2:

    hes an average fighter in a weak division. in comparison to past champs, he has beat nobody in a historical sense. klit was old and wilder cant fight. besides those 2, a bunch of club fighters in comparison...and more than a few were a match.

    Fury is average at best when it comes to boxing, but my gosh he is truly elite at Twitter. Did you see the number of impressions his tweets tend to get?

    There are no top contenders worth mentioning that Fury needsto fight to prove himself.
    He is guilty of not facing Joshua and Usyk, the rest are irrelevant.

    I am talking in terms of relevance to hypothetical H2H matchups.

    Marciano would be like a bug Fury would squash under his boot.
    Marciano wouldn't even put a dent on Fury, he's too small, slow and unskilled.

    Futo doesn’t fight enough to be labeled an ATG. His ducking of Usyk is very poor. Idyl even agreed to Fury’s outlandish offer of 70-30 and he still ducked him. He’s becoming a legend in his own mind.
