But then it's also proof of how weak the division is. Fury has a pot of glaring flaws still which would have been caught out if he was more active. It's been 13 months since he last fought and before that he had about 5 fights in five years. And 4 out of those 5 were against guys nowhere near the top 10. Fury still has some ways to go.
Fury has been inactive due a global pandemic & not being able to fight due to his mental condition, hardly his own fault.
If Fury beats Joshua he goes down as the best HW of his era, fact.
If he beats AJ you could make the case his big top level wins were better than Mikes. But in terms of depth Mike is far ahead. - Holmes, Razor, Berbick, Tubbs, Bonecrusher, Tucker, Bruno, Pinklon, Michael Spinks, Carl Williams, Botha, Stewart would all be top 5 opponents on Furys resume.
