    He is currently the unified WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, IBO, The Ring magazine and lineal heavyweight champion.

    undefeated at 25 wins 0 losses

    defeated guys like Wladimir Klitschko, Dereck Chisora, Christian Hammer

    He is ranked in the top 5 heavyweight boxers of the world by boxing publications such as BoxRec and Yahoo Sports

    So, will ever ever be as great as Muhammad Ali? and at what age

    I've always under estimated Fury but I really can't see him carving out a legacy like Ali's or even Wlad's to be honest.

    We all know he balloons up in weight between fights, we all know he's a pretty unstable character and has talked about depression. All signs do not point towards a very lengthy career.

    I actually think Wilder could beat him and I find Wilder absolutely awful. So no.

    Based on what?. Wilder fought one top 15 opponent who he went 12 rounds with. Fury oils dance around him all night, even David Haye smacked him all ov the place in sparring.

    And credit to Fury for doing so he clearly has bigger ***** than Wilder. I still have reservations about his chin though. I said Wilder "could" beat him but I would make Fury a slight favorite he is more skilled

    Ali had a strong charisma and wisdom. Comparing with Ali - Fury is just a b level charlatan.

    Fury is already far greater in stature. And at eating hedgehogs.

    He doesn't have the drive to be a top five guy, and probably not top ten.

    I had high hopes, but I think we will finish somewhere between the Rahmen-Sanders-Witherspoon end of it and the Norton-Patterson-Walcott end depending.
