    I don`t think these 4 compare to the fab four P4P very well, I think they compare well to Ray as he was at middle v Hagler though and Duran at middle, they compare vey well to Hearns at middle because after the Shuler fighter he went downhill.

    The Fury v Wilder fight was better than the third fight between Duran and Leonard and better in quality to Ray`s rematch v Hearns though.

    Ortiz is a lot more skilled than many other silver medalist from certain Olmpics like Joyce who had virtually no skill and was outboxed by Usyk shortly after the 2012 Olmpic games.

    Usyk could have beat most heavies that won silver`s at olmpic games tournaments at the stage they were at when they won their medals.

    This. People aren't giving Wilder enough credit for his ability. If Wilder fought Fury even back in 2015 I still think Wilder would've put him on his back at least once or twice.

    That said when Wilder follows instructions and puts his punches together he can land on anybody, but unfortunately he has a bad habit of over relying on one shot, which makes him predictable.

    Usyk could definitely be a threat to the top three, but he would need at least 2-3 fights to adjust before it would make sense to throw him in there against Joshua, Fury, or Wilder.

    Nah, Gassiev hits just as hard as AJ, and he landed flush on USYK. don't underestimate Usyks chin.

    Nah punching power for Gassiev and AJ were measured on the https://powerkube.net/ PowerKube punch meter, and AJ scored about 1.5x Gassievs score.

    AJ Hits 150% harder than Gassiev.

    These machines are bull****. Gervonta Davis had better result then Wilder and Brezeale on these machines.

    Those machines are unreliable. Too many bizarre results over the decade.

    Usyk decisions Joshua and stops Wilder in some manner. The Fury fight is the toughest. Oleksander either KOs Tyson or its a decision win for Fury.

    he humiliates fury into quitting mid fight. fury is outclassed in every talent aspect by usyk. the only advantage fury would have is reach.

    Fury: 10/90 too much difference's in measurements.

    Joshua: 40/60 has a chance to stay out of power shots dont gass out and take a UD.

    Povetkin: 80/20 He would simply outbox Povetkin over 12 rounds.

    2Slyk has a very good chance of unification, I would bet on it for real.
