Period. He's not only the best Heavyweight of all time if you consider skills and body composition. He's also just a likeable guy. He talks a lot of **** but that's it...we all do. He's REAL. Kneel down, welcome the lineal Heavyweight Champion of the World. This content is protected
He's not the greatest... yet. Maybe he has the skill set to potentially be the greatest, but his resume doesn't show it. At the very least, there are still two great fighters out there that he needs to beat: AJ and Usyk. If he convincingly beats them, then he can say he cleaned out the division and dominated his era, and then we can begin talking about "greatest." Without those fights though, there just isn't enough on Fury's resume to make an argument for "greatest." He beat an old Wlad and had an entertaining trilogy against Wilder, a dangerous, but very one dimensional fighter, and that's about it.
I make him 17th atm, if he is truly retired. As a huge fan of the man. Possibly my favourite fighter of all time. With 1 more win against the winner of AJ-Usyk II, he could take himself as high as 6th or 7th.
Eh Wait for him to retire Usyk and himself first... But Usyk is a cruiserweight and AJ is a bodybuilder so don't be surprised when it happens.
That's what I've been saying. What has the man accomplished. Let's just compare some greats. Pacquiao, Mayweather, Joe Louis, Oscar De La Hoya, even Golovkin. All have accomplished much more against better opposition. How anyone can come on here and claim Fury is the greatest of all time is just laughable. H2H, is a different story. But that's fantasy, mythical realm stuff. Cannot apply that when considering ATG status.
GOAT???? Nahhhhh Love the Gypsy King but not even in the top 15 of HW Champions all time. Totally love his attitude, come back story and his destruction of Wilder but that does not make you the BEST EVER
I just don't believe that he wants Usyk...not because he is afraid...I don't think he is afraid of any man. I think he just doesn't see the dollar signs in Uysk that he does Joshua. He is going to wait for Usyk to beat Joshua again and retire. At that point, Joshua will maybe win a rubber match against Ruiz or something, and be a hot name again. Then they can do their Wembly match.
