    Of the current heavyweights, I'd give Joshua the best chance. I'd make Fury the favourite but not by much. Joshua's a much smarter boxer than most give him credit for.

    Wilder could possibly KO Fury in their next fight. I highly doubt it but there's a real chance Fury gets complacent at some point against a guy he's already effectively beat twice.

    Usyk possibly. I'm not sold on Usyk yet as a heavyweight but there's a chance he'll prove to be able to outpoint any of them. He was a great boxer at cruiser.

    I'd make Fury a favourite against everyone at the moment. But everyone loses. Wouldn't completely shock me to see him lose a decision to a Parker or a Hunter if he met inspired versions of them.

    Ok so you consider a clean right hand that lands right on your ear drum by a 270 lbs man a medium punch.

    See what your getting at think Tyson might have a bad night if fury survived the first four rounds of onslaught . Even Ali would probably struggle with shear size of him. Fury isn't unbeatable but definitely sat at the top of the tree right now for me

    I think so George just imagine how stupid your comment will look when Joshua beats him or indeed Wilder .But to be fair if fury wins its me who will look bonkers

    Fury of Wilder 2 is unstoppable imo. Has all: power, defense, jab, heart, stamina, IQ ring.

    See it being a hard fight for AG but he's got the best chance of doing it right now. Can move got a fair bit of power and puts his combo's together well when he lets go. That chin is a problem tho, not glass but granite nope. Be a great watch

    Fury vs AJ ---------------55-45
    Fury vs Wilder III------------90-10
    Fury vs Povetkin-------------90-10
    Fury vs Ruiz Jr---------------90-10

    Now in another year or two, I'd give Dubois a significant chance to beat Fury.
    Same with Hrgovic.

    Mike Tyson would beat Tyson Fury.

    Who has the most similar boxing style to Mike Tyson at the moment? Alexander Povetkin.

    So, Povetkin beats Fury.

    Currently though, its hard to say. I favour Fury to bet AJ but I give AJ a decent chance. Its like 55/45 or maybes 60/40 favouring Fury for me.

    Wilder could maybes KO him if he catches him right but based on the first two fights I see that as a slim chance now. Fury has his number.

    I actually think Ruiz could be a horrible style for Fury, small, fast, good power, gets shots off where bigger fighters arent expecting them, good endurance. Of course Fury may well be able to just Joshua II him stay at range, pop the jab and then clinch when he gets in close but if Ruiz can get inside and get his shots off I think Fury has a long night with him

    Rest of the crowd is just getting him.on the right night, Wallin gave him hell and had him wobbled, Cunningham dropped him, he has flaws but he also has good recovery and is very motivated to win so even on a bad night hes a hard guy to beat.

    Historically Id pick a fair few to beat him tbh.

    Today. Joshua has a decent chance. I'd still favor Fury, but Joshua has the tools to pull off a win. Good size, power in both hands. Places his punches well. Can fight at all ranges.

    All time? I'd say Lennox, Ali, and Holmes would be favorites.
    Vitali, Tyson, Foreman would be in the conversation.

    I think Hrgovic is good enough to beat Fury, also Dubois will soon be able to beat Fury...

    Totally depends on the first rounds when Tyson starts to gas, see Fury picking him apart. But surviving fresh out the blocks Tyson not easy.

    Really don't get your comparison of provetkin and Tyson totally different types of fighter
