    Im not saying Wilder is a good or bad win for Fury. But him & Klit are the only names on Furys record that are any good.
    AJ has Parker, Whyte, Povetkin,Ruiz,Martin, all who are currently in the top 20.
    Fury has Wilder & chisora who are in the top 20.
    I am not saying that Fury would not beat AJ if they fought. but what I am saying is that as it stands right now AJ has a better record.
    I am also saying that to call Fury the GOAT with him having such a thin resume is ridiculous.

    Povetkin = old and too small for A.J. easily predictable win. Did you had compared Povetkin fights when he was 30, 34 and later? 39 y.o 225 lbs Povetkin. what a surpise that A.J defeated him.
    Ruiz : he needs 3 rd fight vs Ruiz because he is 1-1 vs Ruiz. It might be interesting to watch.;)
    Whyte had been KOed by 41 y.o small Povetkin. Of course this was surpise. Yeah, Povetkin is capable to KO anyone if he landed ideally.
    Still he more at least 5 years is over the hill.

    Now A.J will had 39 y.o Pulev, again predictable A.J win.

    this Wilder then was with 1 tittle belt and they insisted on fight vs Wilder in U.S.
    Ofc after 2nd fight vs Fury Wilder dropped in rankings and lost belt.

    / There is stuff that I agree with: A.J does have considerably better amateur achievments than Wilder, Fury, Ruiz, Whyte, Chisora.
    He is Olympic Gold medalist.

    Your posts are very difficult to follow. What is your point? that everyone rated as top 20 that AJ has beaten are rubbish?
    So in your opinion who in the top 20 do you rate as any good?

    You just talk nonsense. I'm not even really a fan of AJ but he clearly has the best resume of any current heavyweight.

    Ok but thats kinda biased.

    We can say klitschko was over the hill when fury beat him

    We can say wilder is a bum with a right hand who has never beat a top opponent and got saved by the bell against grandpa ortiz.

    And we can say chisora is the guy who lost to whyte twice.

    Not saying Aj beats him but his resume is a bit thicker. Though the resume doesn't always speak about the fighter

    The term Hypejob fits someone more like dubois or yarde.

    He may end up being the GOAT, but as of now his resume is way too skinny for talk like that.

    Of course and I had told this already: Povetkin was over the hill and old when A.J fought him.
    Klitschko was over the hill when Fury and A.J fought him and looks that A.J fought older Klitschko than Fury had in the ring.

    Of course no. He sitted on one tittle and fought opponents in U.S. Ortiz 40? y.o slow boxer, Fury was supposed in forums as easy fight for him in the U.S

    Still Wilder is not a bum and he then had belt + Fury had to fight him in U.S twice.
    Sadly not in U.K.

    Did they? After Klitschko sparked plodder Pulev many were lauding this version of Klitschko as by far the best ever.

    Would Fury have had more risk against the Klitschko that got stopped by legendary boxers like Purrity, Sanders and Brewster, or the one who was dropped umpteen times against Sam Peter?

    Or are you talking about the Klitschko who had it easy against small, old or pumped up opponents like Mormeck, Haye, Ibragimov, Thompson, Brock etc?

    An older, inactive Klitschko, coming off the loss, fought in the UK against Joshua and went life and death with him, with Vitali saying he instructed Wladimir not to go in for the kill.

    The rabid Joshua fanboys on this forum like RB1702 will have you believe that the best Klitschko was the one who contested his last ever bout at the age of 41, who was gassing and leading with lumbering left hooks out of desperation.

    Of course and even facts are for you nonsense if they aren't in A.J favour.

    A.J is 1-1-0 vs Ruiz. lost fight via stoppage and win via decision.
    Fury is 1-0-1 vs Wilder, a draw in U.S and win via stoppage in U.S.

    Also maybe nonsense is that Wilder had been ranked higher than Ruiz before 1 st A.J fight vs Ruiz and even had a tittle belt when first fight vs Fury had been scheduled to be done in the U.S?
    Nonsense is that Ruiz didn't had a belt when first fight vs A.J had been negotiated with Ruiz as late replacement?
    A.J lost a tittle defense fight vs late replacement, laughted up in forums, called in forums and YT comments as fat and leg lazy: Ruiz that wasn't ranked in top 5 at all.

    If it wasn't for Fury the heavyweight division would be dull as dishwater, & there's a reason Mr Personality is avoiding him like the clap.
