Because he beat Ruiz, Wlad, Povetkin, Whyte, Parker, and Pulev all top 15 heavyweights lol that's by far the most stacked resume in the division, I still pick Fury over him but AJ's built by far the most solid resume of any heavyweight competing today.
I don't tend to hear people talk about AJ as an all time great. He's just one of the best around today. It's hard to deny that when he's beaten all the guys listed in the original post.
Maybe so, but my word as good as AJ is, he isnt nowhere near as good as you carry on See the similarity here?
Since when do you see my overhype him to an excessive degree? Most of the time I talk about AJ on here is when I’m defending him against Fury fans who slag him off. On the other hand you have Fury fans on here saying Fury is the best heavyweight in history, beats AJ easily, has amazing inside fighting skills and lighting fast reflexes and hand speed, granite chin etc. All complete exaggerations. Actually most of the time I talk about AJ it’s a long the likes of “he’s a two time unified champ for a reason”, “he’ll have a competitive fight with Fury”, “he’s got good hand speed and combinations for a man his size. He’s beat top opponents and has a solid resume etc”. That overhyping him yeah? I don’t see you having this energy with some of the Fury fans who post on here.
All the time.. AJ knocks him out in 5 They aint on AJ's level He is gonna knock Fury's head off with his uppercuts I could go on You don't even realise you do it
Sometimes I bait on here but let’s be honest is saying guys like Hrgovic, Joyce, Dubois, Hunter not on AJ’s level inaccurate? Have those guys proven to be world class heavyweights? No they certainly haven’t. What’s wrong with saying they aren’t on AJ’s level? They’re not on Fury’s either. Also saying AJ knocks any heavyweight out in 5 isn’t deluded. I mostly say that about Wilder. AJ could definitely knock him out early and so could the opposite happen. Neither are at all deluded opinions. You’re reaching pal. As I said before. Keep that same energy with the Fury fans on here who constantly overrate Fury, but you won’t do it will ya.
So you think wallin is better then wilder or what is the meaning of your post? Fury seems to be lazy in prep when the opponent isnt to good.
Not reaching at all I pull people who are deluded about Fury too And im a fan of his I believe im realistic however
Right now, AJ will have Fury's Wallin fight playing on high rotate. If he can fight like Wallin, he can beat Fury - because he is better than Wallin Just sayin.....
Yeah... a lot of people dont realize there was a reason why Otto Wallin gave Fury so much trouble. Instead of a lot of Furys opponents staying on the outside, Wallin took the fight directly to him several times and went for the body and head and mixed up his attacks. He went on the front foot and pressured him and wasn't trying to do any jab for jab bullcrap. He pressed the action and sort of swarmed Fury. He also put Fury in a position he didn't want to be in and this made him uncomfortable. He did cut fury and that helped but the cut was caused by a left hook that connected while fury was pressured on the ropes if im not mistaken. It has been shown time and time again throughout history that the best way to trouble an outboxer like fury is to swarm them and break them down. It is no coincidence that someone like wallin gave Fury so much trouble with this gameplan
Yeah why is he rated so highly, all he's done is win Olympic Gold, unified all but one belt, single handily turned a division which during the Wlad era was ignored my the masses into once again the most lucrative division in boxing and dared to be great by clearly looking for the toughest fights often at a time when many thought he wasn't ready. Clearly a hype job lol.
Don't see how he's overrated or underrated as most have him at the number 2 spot behind Fury which is right. I don't see how you can put him any lower than the number 3 spot or any higher than number 2.
There’s Fury fans who think Fury is directly responsible for the excitement in the heavyweight division.
