      Wilder fights probably took a lot from Fury. I guess he is not the same fighter anymore. even more, he has fought under level of top competition recently.

        He is just there on merit really.

        I always maintained and still do that the worst thing that could have happened was Wladimir losing. If it wasn't for a breath of fresh air in Usyk I literally wouldn't give a **** for the division.

        Everyone claimed it would be better once Wlads reign ended but I think its just an undeniable mess.

        Regardless of how boring he could be he fought literally everyone and stayed active, never an issue, constantly fighting the best available opponents now we just have this overgrown jackass taking the division hostage.

          Zhang is no1. Boxing is what have you done lately, or rather h2h ability. But I want fury to prove me wrong and ko Zhang.

              It is time to wake up. Usyk, Joshua, DDD, Zhang, Ruiz, Hrgovic, Sanchez, many other guys are waiting that Fury gets some balls and fights somebody relevant.
              Reminder that Whyte was Fury's mandatory, and literally everyone on here including yourself were saying "Whyte deserves a title shot, Fury needs to fight him or vacate"

              That one trick pony would brutalise bums like Zhang and DDD btw

                It is pretty dumb that the basis for him being considered the best right now is him beating two guys ranked in the top 10. But then again if not him then who? its not like anyone has cleared out the division. The only other option is Usyk and if you rank him no1 instead its purely off of beating Joshua.

                  Yes, Fury is very good, but his resume is paper thin. We know that he'll beat most of the other guys, but knowing is not enough. We have to see it.
