    I know this might be too much for some guys but think about it without letting your hate for Fury cloud your judgement in this.…

    Fury has the ability to see punches before they are even thrown I rarely see a fighter achieve this great feat... im not talking about when theyre loading up I mean the fighter could be in his standard stance but Fury knows what they will do.

    This requires gift you cant learn it only Fury could do this

    Fury also has one of the greatest jabs I have ever seen look at the Chisora fight he beat Chisora down with JUST the jab go look it up…..

    Fury movement is exceptional he moves like a middleweight yet he is 6 foot 9 270 pounds this is crazy I mean you cant find anyone like that

    Fury movement is more impressive than Muhammad Ali because he is much taller and weighs much more

    Dude every boxer on Earth can predict what their opponent will throw the majority of times. It's more impressive to be able to see and dodge a fast world class punch after it's thrown. That's a nearly impossible gift.

    Don't get me wrong, Fury's movement is very good - especially considering he's so big - but I think it's becoming a little overstated now especially as his feet have slowed somewhat. It's extravagantly herky-jerky and, therefore, it's very apparent but I'm not sure it's as efficient as it is eye-catching. Southpaw Wallin showed this for large parts of their fight and is why Usyk would be a very tough night for him. It's not as good as it was when he fought Wlad - he really doesn't move like a MW - but he's added other strings to his 2.0 bow.

    His jab is exceptional, I'll agree to that and dismantled Chisora in their rematch. He was probably even better vs Hammer...

    You hit it on the head. The art of boxing lies in deceiving your opponent and not being deceived by your opponent.

    As for Fury, he is gifted, but mores than Ali? Lewis? I don't know.
