    Usyk

    He's one of the best cruiserweights ever hence his ability to deal with the big plodding bum ass bodybuilders but once he comes against a real heayweight, not overhand right 4 round gas tank Chisora. Plodding dumb 6 round gas tank AJ or even more crude but still bellied him 6 round gas tank Dubious he will get battered. It will be Bowe Holyfield, completely different but even worse for Usyk.

    Usyk is about the only guy that gets rated currently since everyone considers Fury a fraud.

    And you are a fan of his, of course :DDDDDDD

    As for the OP: the only correct andswer is Fury of course.

    Absolute garbage resume. 34 professional fights in 15 years as a HW. Only six title fights in eight years, half of those against the same limited one-trick-pony. Only three title defences, never defended multiple belts. Yet, casuals think he is not only the best HW today but one if not the greatest HW ever :DDDDD

    In reality he is not even in the top 20 of all time.

    Gone with Usyk, everyone's acting like he could slay the top 10 ATG heavyweights on the same night with his eyes closed. He is a great fighter, probably the best heavy in the world atm, although we need the Fury fight to say this definitively. I've already seen him described as a heavyweight ATG, with "an unbeatable style".

    Usyk is a very very good fighter, but as always fans go tooooooo far in their praises, way too far

    Usyk. he is not proven at HW at highest level.

    Beating limited guys will not get you to the top.

    Funny votes and answers. Im just missing all this threads of Usyk being ATG at HW, and all that nonsense. But Fury is proclaimed Number 1 now and in the history, yet his record is paper thin + of course he is ducking Usyk for the last year. The right answer is Fury.

    Theres a few actually.

    Usyk because he gets branded as a Heavyweight ATG and a H2H monster, when really I don't think hes been that "impressive" at Heavyweight to make such claims.

    Joyce was very overrated after being Parker, people claimed he was the next George Foreman and that he would beat a prime Mike Tyson laughable.

    Wilder has got a bit overrated since the 3rd Fury fight, yes he has a tremendous right hand. But still has only beaten 2 fighters ranked in the top 10 we need to see him fight more top guys.

    I was talking about Usyk

    he is no better than Fury at choosing opponents that makes him look good, but in reality they are very limited and beating them will get you nowhere at highest level.
