Yes, he's got to beat usyk and Josh to be best of era. Then some other good name to be candidate for GOAT.
Best zhang, flip and and target everyone in top ten then he can be in the equation
He doesn’t have to beat Joshua, Joshua has been beaten 3 times already in pretty dominant fashion. If he is able to beat Usyk that’s really legacy sealed right there
Course he would. It would only take the Usyk win really but still it should be standard that when theres a big 4 of the division as there has been in this HW era, the ultimate no1 guy fights and beats all of them. So far hes dealt with one of the other three.

Tyson was beaten 3 times before Lewis... but you still need to face and beat the best of your generation if you want to claim that mantle.
This time two years ago people would have said Fury would need to beat Joshua. In another year they may say the same. He's 33 - there are fights ahead of him.
Boxing is very fickle in the short term. Fury doesn't get to define who are the best fighters in the era. He just gets to decide when or if he faces them.
What more could Fury have done to fight these guys? Let's take Usyk, Fury sent him contract after contract, and then of course sent 1 million to the Ukraine after Usyk requested that. Then Joshua, Fury offered the fight for free to air TV, with no fighter being paid. Fury was fine with that, but not greedy Joshua and greedy Hearn. Nash out

Just because a fighter has a lost on their record, 'That does not cancel out their entire resume'.
Joshua has beaten a higher number of World level Heavyweights than Tyson Fury 'Outside of Kiltschko & Wilder, Fury has barely fought at World level'.
Joshua avenged his lost to Ruiz Junior 12-0 easy, and he was competitive vs Usyk twice.
Weather people like to acknowledge it or not, 'Anthony is and has been a premier Heavyweight within this era'.
Note: Joshua has already beaten a better version more optimally prepare Kiltschko than Fury. If Joshua also then beats Wilder, it will be almost a mandatory requirement that Fury should aim to fight Joshua.
But as of right now? I am in slight agreement that Joshua needs some more top level wins to position himself on merit for another title fight etc.
