If Fury beats Usyk and AJ, where do you rank him all time?

    Winning the Usyk rematch then coming out on top against Anthony Joshua would make Fury the best of his era but he still would n't be in the Top 10 all time heavies.

    Bottom end of top 15. Like Bowe, not only is the top-end resume thin, but he looked like **** and arguably lost some of his "wins."

    Also like Bowe, a lot of people have trouble taking seriously a man that massive who loses to ANY cruiserweight. That may not be fair, but it comes up about Bowe that he could only beat a good fighter in holy that he stacked up well against physically, and even if Fury beats Usyk at this point (and he won't), it will come up against him.

    Well you scored 2 rounds even meaning it is in the realms of possibility Ngannou wins a decision.

    It was a very tit for tat boring fight with some close rounds but Ngannou landed the harder punches and scored the only knockdown.

    It's debatable either way I wouldn't agree it's though "unquestionable" Fury won when two judges had it a 1 point fight and Ngannou won a poll here.

    I think he would be top 10 material for sure, I don’t believe he can do it though.
    He’d have win over Wlad the best heavy in the world at the time.
    He’d have a win over Usyk the undefeated best heavy in the world who happens to be the number 1 p4p fighter in the world by most estimates.
    He’d have a win over top 2 heavy at that point Joshua. (If Joshua gets by Dubois)
    A dominant trilogy edge over Wilder who was undefeated and regarded as an all time puncher.
    Throw in top contender Whyte.
    He’d have some massive wins.
    Honestly - Wlad, Usyk, Wilder x2, Joshua, Whyte.
    I think he is lock top 15 and strong argument for top 10.
    But I think it’s a pipe dream. I can’t see him pulling that run off

    I was wrong about Fury being the clear winner
