    The most overrated boxer at this current time is Usyk. That won't be the case in a few weeks when the emotions die down.

    As for Fury, if you haven't figured it out by now you never will, not every great boxer has a flashy, point scoring razzle dazzle clean style.

        He's got amazing abilities but we are living in the pac era where pac laid the blueprint for greatness. So until you fight everyone and build resume and some longevity you are overated.
        So compared to pac, fury is overated it's all relative. Best heavyweight out there though arguably but compared to pac everyone's overated until your achievements are comparable. Terence has unbelievable ability and might beat pac h2h but bud is a bum compared to the senator

          Fury is overrated but it’s a pick’em between him and Wilder. But he’s the most overrated in the U.K. for sure.

          I have watched this guy from his 1st pro fight (way before he copied Mayweather’s defensive style) and I have never been impressed. But he has boxing people around him who have helped him guide his career the right way to avoid potential banana skin.

          Fury is the only guy that looks very clumsy moving forward and throws punches like an amateur. But they say it’s part of the “herky jerky” style.

          Fury would look terrible against bums who happen to be a bad style matchup for him. But because they think this fraud is perfect - they will claim it’s because he doesn’t get up unless it’s for big fights.

          I wanna see Simon Jordan and Adam Smith’s faces when he gets sparked.

            He is the best heavyweight right now.

            Mayweather, canelo and Pacquiao don`t exist in heavyweight debates.

              when I watch Tyson fury, I just see a clumsy dude. When he throws punches they just look clumsy. He just looks clumsy when he’s in the ring. I just don’t get it. What are you guys seeing?
              Yes he is in fact a big clumsy oaf..the worst heavyweight era of all time if he is the best...

              He beat wlad after wlad looked shot in his fight prior against jennings

              Then the mentally weakest champion then ducks a rematch

              Then he fights wilder and complete tamoto cans...let's not forget wilder started boxing at 25 odd and got schooled by oldtiz

              Fury and his fans claim that the wilder win was some sort of ali beating foreman feat when in fact wilder was handed a vacant belt
              Fury is extremely overrated but sometimes you just get lucky and his division sucks

                  Stay salty. Wilder would knock your boy AJ spark out.

                    OP seems like another Joshua ****licker. You muppets have been talking rubbish all over this forum since your god lost. Just LOL at thinking Joshua's loss of size would make him more likely to get the KO. You Joshua fans are ****ing clueless and I hate hearing any of you talk.
