    Yes and no

    Yes he is overated when compared to ali

    And no sometimes because of his one sided dominations over wlad and wilder.

    Not a man born from their mother can defeat Tyson Fury

    He is unstoppable like Ali. You have to kill him to stop him.

    He is underrated because not everyone believes he is the GOAT yet.

    When you hurt Fury you make him stronger. He's like a DBZ character.

    He is the best of an average heavyweight division at the moment, one defeat and most of the same fans calling him the GOAT will turn on him and we will get "exposed" threads for 12-18 months.

    I find it is normally younger fans that lose their minds over Fury, they wasn't around or are too young to remember a prime Tyson, Lewis, Bowie, Holyfield.

    And obviously where not born when the likes of Foreman, Ali, Frazier, Holmes were around.

    I think most people remember fighters in their lifetime as the "best", because they are watching fights live, they are enjoying and living through them, so it means more.

    I do it, I'm conscious of it though, I try to be fair and balanced but I remember being at certain fights and they will always remain special performances and special occasions, I remember watching fights live on TV in the early hours, the excitement and nerves were incredible.

    Then I can't go back and watch a true great, maybe even an old black and white film, read things and although you can't deny their greatness it's difficult to feel the same about them.

    He schooled Wlad and beat Wilder on points when he was fat, and via knockout when he was fit.

    Best heavyweight around just now, for sure, but yeah probably slightly overrated when he's spoken about as an ATG. Needs a good few more big wins to be included in they discussions IMO.

    Yes very overrated, his two best wins are old Waldo and Wilder who more than half of forum was calling a overrated bum killer with a glass jaw, yet his fans claim to be the best heavyweight ever and how he beats every great heavyweight in history.

    Right now he is the man. He will overtake FMJ as the richest boxer sooner or later.

    Fury - Real Fury showed up to finish his buisness
    Ortiz - Granddad again
    Breazeale - C tier
    Fury - Recently rehabbed from obesity and drug abuse
    Ortiz - Quality fighter but OAP with 8 round gas tank.
    bumane - Came for a paycheck the fat mess
    washington - Who?
    areola - Shot and fat
    szpilka - Football Hooligan
    duhaupas - C/D tier gave Wilder a tough fight
    molina - Isn't he a school teacher?
    Bumane - Fat bum almost died from having to fight for 12 rounds.
    Gavern - Lol
    Scott - Literally took a dive for his homeboy

    Wilder is just trash with a ridiculous explosive right hand. A thing of legends in its own right.
