    This is the biggest fight at HW since Tyson Fury Vs Wladimir Klitscko 28 November 2015

    "It is befitting that I leave the game just like I came in, beating a big bad Ukrainian dosser who beats everybody and no one can whup him" - Tyson Fury

    I would pay a decent amount to watch Tyson Fury against Oleksandr Usyk. It would be a biggie to me.

    These guys are in their prime I don't rate Washed Tyson vs Prime Lewis high that was big fight for Lewis just.
    Even Prime Lewis- past prime Holyfield isn't better so I would say since Bowe Holyfield 1,2

    The narrative is created by the American sport media, so it won't be considered overly important. And the lemmings will continue to believe that Ali-Foreman-Frazier-Tyson fights trump anything that will ever occur, despite the fact those fighters all get beaten by Fury and Usyk.

    Wlad v Fury wasn`t a big fight, Fury was a huge underdog and unknown on the global stage at that stage.

    For me it's the biggest fight since the Lewis v Holyfield fights, as this was the last time an undisputed heavyweight champion was made. In terms of top 10 all time, I think it would push Fury up there. Especially when you consider his journey from being disliked and discounted by most, to becoming an undisputed champion of the people (and the first ever 3 time ring magazine champion - the real reason I suspect he retired).

    For Usyk, I think he'd need a few good defenses to clean out the big threats in the division.
