    They are the sort of guys who have only ever seen YouTube highlights of Ali and Co.

    It's beyond ******ed now, people have been calling fury an unskilled bum since the days they predicted he would lose to Chisora and David Price because they were "better boxers"

    When will they learn

      Fury obviously has skills, especially for a big guy, but I feel like Wilder makes him look like a monster in a way prime LL, Vitali, Wlad, Bowe etc etc definitely wouldnt.

        I'm sick of hearing it from you idiots, the current division is deep and entertaining, and yeah there's a lot of unorthodox fighters in there but some of you need to learn that there's more than one way to skin a cat.

        Fury gives ANY ATG heavyweight a serious headache, and beats a lot of them.
        Fck what a person says. My EYES work perfectly. Ha ! A fan being told what they see is great when it's not.

        Every rd in this trilogy was filled with slop.

        Alex Steward would run amok in this shltty HW era.

          They would be more difficult fights but fury can win all of them.

          I don't know wtf Vitali does against Fury, because his lean back jab style he used his whole career definatley wouldn't work.

          Lewis has the best chance of anyone on that list due to versatility, I expect the other 3 all lose to Fury, Bowe would probably get in the trash can he threw his belt in rather than fight fury.

            Are you a Wilder fan by any chance? Reason I ask is because a lot of people who were Wilder fans seem to be trying to discredit Fury by trying to say that Wilder was never that good all along. Seems they just hated Fury more than they were ever fans of Wilder.

              It was sloppy but wth man, it was a great fight!Now Fury needs to get in better shape if he wants to beat AJ or Usyk. I think he beats both but he has to be better because Wilder is not that goo.d

                Your eyes may be perfect but it's your brain that's the issue.

                  Meh

                  Continue letting people tell you what you see.

                  When I SEE professional boxers flailing with their arms and falling over each other, my brain really has the night off.

                  The Transformer movies may be ''entertaining'' but they are basic AF

                    Fury is as skilled as they come and can fight in any style.
