    No. But if he beats a motivated in shape Fury and then beats Joshua he'd be making some good progress toward it

    Ortiz was a decent start (though he should have more of those type of fights by now). The clock is ticking for sure at his age, no time for keep busy fights at this point.

    If he fought the version that beat Wlad, its a step in the right direction.

    No. He'd have to also beat Joshua and defend the Undisputed title at least 10 times for me to consider him a great.

    Tyson Fury will be known at the GOAT by the end of 2019 after he is finished with Wilder and AJ.
