    Forgetting WBO Vitali and Freitas.. it's gotta be some sort of record if he goes 17-0 (17).. held by Roy Jones and Fernando Vargas..


    But WBO has been considered a legitimate belt for a long time now..

    WBO only became a real belt when Hopkins unified it..

    Fury got dropped by Paikej who is worse than Whyte, fighters improve. I'm not saying Fury is bad, but AJ has more upside and will be even better when the fight does happen. Fury is getting smashed.

    So unless he does a Vitali 27-0 (27).. he's got a long way to go..

    But Joshua isn't improving is he ?

    What is Joshua doing different, he's got a physical and power advantage over all his opponents, he hasn't had to adapt or change strategy mid fight, he simply relies on power.

    Fury got dropped by switching off and getting ****y, when he fights better opposition he's proven to be far more clinical.

    Fury would totally embarrass Joshua.

    But 16-0 (16) must be a heavyweight Vargas..

    Plus you factor in the peds when he has impunity to stringent testing, and there is a clear advantage he holds.
