    No. But climbing in the rankings.

    Please change title to "when" Fury beats Wilder.

    Very interesting events that can unfold in the Heavyweight division. I'm down with whoever as long as everyone mixes it up. I'm still not sure why Wilder would not want to go to the UK and fight a few dudes just to make his presence known a bit over there before the Joshua fight. I'm thinking money wise 2 or 3 UK bouts could land him 8-10 million even if he fights a Chisora or Whyte.

    Not sure any HW of this era can put a claim to being GOAT.

    Wilder could get top 10 ATG......Joshua/Fury could get slightly higher given both have an ATG on their resume.

    1) Wilder is going to put Fury to sleep

    2) If Fury beats Wilder he's not the GOAT

    I don't rate Wilder very highly in the grand scheme of things at all. He's got flaws you could drive a dumpster through and not touch sides. But what Wilder does have is a good gas tank, and he hits very, very hard. Fury with is flabby, rusty condition at present, is a sitting duck for those big bombs.

    No not even close, Wilder would be a good scalp but not one that would add as much to his legacy as the Wlad win did.

    If he were to beat Wilder he could claim to be the best around now and plenty would agree with him if he won convincingly.

    If Fury can beat Wilder and Joshua he would be a lock for the HOF.

    Yes if you think Wilder is an ATG already.

    Too many casuals call him a bum to make a win over Wilder worth anything.
