    Nah, I don't see him topping Wlad and Tyson, which are my numbers 10 and 9.

    How would he not surpass Wlad when he took his belts off him? Seems a bit odd to me.

    I'd have him in the top ten for sure IF he beats Usyk. After all, plenty of people seem to think Usyk beating Fury is enough to put him as GOAT.

    Does thast mean you have Corrie Sanders as greater than Wlad as well? Chris Byrd is greater than Holyfield? Danny Williams over Tyson?

    You're using a false premise to make your own. Two wrongs don't make a right.

    Just like I don't rate Ezzard Charles above Joe Louis or Holmes above Ali or Buster Douglas above Mike Tyson.

    Using this logic, Kirkland Laing was a better fighter than Duran

    Are you suggesting any of the aforementioned fighters have achieved more than Fury?

    They didn't achieve the things that they boxers they conquered did. Just like Fury and Wlad.

    Beating an ancient Wladamir isn't top 10 of all time worthy. If that's all it takes, Joshua, Brewster Sanders and Puritty should be top 10 too. Fury has a weak resume and sacrificed his prime years on a bender and then fought hype jobs and journeymen on his comeback.

    Fury isn't just going to beat Usyk though. He going to show his ultimate form then perish. Usyk will not be spared.
