    How do you beat him?

    6'9

    insane skill level, defense, punch selection

    insane toughness took the best shots from top 3-5 power puncher ever in boxing

    best recovery since Larry Holmes

    now his lack of power has been fixed by SugarHill and can knock you out with a punch

    It's easy to look good against Tex Cobb and Renaldo Snipes level opponents. Saying he beat all HW greats? He gives them hell, but they are great for a reason, they can figure things out in the middle of the round can adapt. Fury hasn't beaten a great fighter, not even close.

    Fury is not 6'9''. He is in the 6'7'' range.

    [url]https://www.celebheights.com/s/Tyson-Fury-49113.html[/url] - stacks of evidence here.

    Also, Vitali Klitschko would beat Fury, but I am not sure who else would. Lennox Lewis would have a chance. I can't think of many others. But Fury has a great chance to beat anyone.

    Usyk, currently, I would favour over Fury.

    You're a clown to even consider this to be the case. "Insane" what the hell is insane about Fury other than his size and "speed". The man is not remarkable in his skill, his resume, he has never beaten a great fighter, and he is not a technically sound fighter himself.

    Tyson Fury today is the same kind of topic of conversation Mike Tyson was in the 80's, the difference is Tyson has an decent resume. Both are wildly over rated because of their dominance over a division that has seen far, far, far better days.

    Fury is a genetic freak who can box, his chin is good, but he is not an all time great, he is not top 25 or top 50, he makes it into the top 100.

    A big man does not equal a dangerous fighter. He's a decent fighter in an era of a division that is in desperate need of a better champion.

    Any HW ever except Usyk who is the only man born from their mother to ever walk this earth who can beat Tyson ''The Gypsy King'' Fury.

    Usyk is the only man who has the kryptonite and the tools for that job.

    39 year old trigger shy Wlad barely lost to him. Yes he lost most rounds but by 2-3 punches a round. I scored it 9-3. Yes Wlad was a great boxer and Fury basically looks way better than the average shills he has been fighting since. But he needs to fight Usyk or even Joshua. An athlete with good amateur experience in their prime.
    Whyte’s skill level is poor
    Wilder’s skill level is non existent
    Wlad was extremely skillful but old. outside that Fury doesn’t have much resume. He’ll make the hall of fame. But he needs more

    This is exactly how I feel. He is unremarkable, Wlad is the only genuine notable fighter on his resume and he had faded, imagine how ignorant other boxers would look if their some of their most noted wins were over Whyte and Wilder. Fury if he retired today will be discussed in the same vain as Mike Tyson with everyone asking if he was ever really an all time great, or just a good fighter compared to his contemporaries. The answer is the latter.

    Except maybe Usyk

    I think Ali and Lewis are great fights, too.

    He doesn't beat Lewis, Vitali or Foreman IMO

    He might overcome Muhammad Ali and Larry Holmes.

    Even a peak on-form Riddick Bowe might trouble him.

    Mike Tyson would be too small even though he is a better puncher

    The most impressive thing about Fury's performance for me is how effortlessly he was able to bridge the gap back up to Brit Level after performing down at the lower level he'd been campaigning at for his last two fights.

    I'm not in the least but ashamed to admit I bawled my eyes out during his GOAT status ring entrance either

    MT had good fundamentals, great head movement and had speed to go with his power. He would work the body for sure. Not a foregone conclusion Fury beats MT.
