Where would Fury rank if...

The sadly all too common mistake Fury's detractors, Brit enviers, and gypsy haters make when it comes to assessing his greatness and his ranking as the GOAT is that they think resumes win fights.

If resumes won fights the fighter with the better resume would win all the time.

Am I wrong or am I right?

I'm not wrong you know

If no man born from their mother can beat you how can you not be the GOAT?

It makes no sense

We know he cannot be defeated via power because he's already bested three of the hardest punchers of his generation, three of the hardest most destructive KO artists in HW boxing history, in Wlad, The Dosser and David Price

Wlad has one of the most devastating right hands and left hooks in HW boxing history

The Dosser has one of the most devastating right hands in boxing history

So does David Price

Dillian Whyte is one of the greatest left hookers in HW boxing history. Period

And obviously no one is outslicking or outboxing a 6'9'' gypsy as slick and skilled as Fury

So that begs the question how on earth can you beat him?

By outworking him?

Er.. have you seen the engine on him?

 

I've heard numerous HWs same the same

Prolific sparring partner: Adam Machaj
Well, one indication lies with the select group of fighters who have exchanged leather will a group of the biggest contenders. One such example is journeyman Adam Machaj.

In a 2017 interview with World Boxing News, Machaj revealed that he has sparred with Joshua, Fury, Wladimir Klitschko as well as British favourites David Price and Dereck Chisora.

He stated: “I’ve sparred all of them, I was in the Klitschko camp for three weeks. I’ve sparred Tyson and Hughie a lot of times, David Price I’ve done a lot of rounds with, I’ve trained with them all.”

The toughest, most powerful and fittest
Quite the selection of fighters, no doubt about it and Machaj had different ways of ranking their qualities.

He chose the ‘toughest fighter’ from the four, the best athlete and who punches the hardest.

Conveniently, four of the boxers fitted into at least one of the four categories.

Machaj decided: “The toughest one I fought in terms of ability was Tyson, he’d beat most of the names out of shape now, getting off the settee. He’s too skilful.

“He runs you around and makes you angry. In terms of a physical athlete it has to be Klitschko and Joshua, they’re the biggest athletes.

“David Price was probably the biggest puncher as every punch he landed hurt, whilst Chisora was good as he was like a little Tasmanian devil, they’re all good in their own rights.

Perhaps the biggest comment of note is that Price is ranked as more powerful than three of the biggest names in 21st Century boxing.

Price is known for his power, but it’s quite the accolade to pack more punch than Klitschko, Joshua and Fury.

However, if anyone would know, it’s Machaj.

None of the greats before or after him would be able to come back from the industrial abuse he put his body through during his near three years spent in the abyss. Only a gypsy man with god's blood coursing through his veins could rise like a phoenix from the ashes and come back to achieve the impossible
