Where do you place Usyk all-time at heavyweight after last night?

      Usyk is above pretty much everyone now let's be honest. Tyson is up there too. None of these past all time greats would be able to do anything with Fury
      None of the past ATG's would be able to do anything with Fury based off what? Steve Cunningham dropped him.

        And then he got up and trashed him. Ali lost to Leon spinks and 5 ft 10 left hook spammer Joe frazier. How many times did Ali really lose to Norton?

          Is Usyk THAT great at HW or is the competition that bad? Was Joshua ever a great HW? So many Wilder fans insisted Fury was overrated and a cheater, so how do they see Usyk's win over Fury now? Is he Wilder's leftovers?

          I still think Dubois hit him on the belt line and Usyk was saved by the ref. How does Usyk stack up in prior eras of HWs? I think he does well in the late 70s and early 80s but loses to Holmes, struggles in the 90s/2000s against Holyfield, Bowe, Lewis, Klitschko brothers, Tua, Tyson, Mercer, Ibeabuchi.

            Top 30 at this point, no problem. He did a great job.

              I don’t understand why people put Fury in the top 10. Who the **** has he defeated?

                So now we're just playing obtuse and act like Ali wasn't extremely washed at that point (and still beat him in the rematch)?

                Joe Frazier is an All Time Great and he beat him twice after.

                Ali might've arguably lost the third time, but he got the decision and at least wasn't dropped. Didn't Fury get dropped and barely eeked out a split decision against a UFC fighter with ZERO pro boxing matches?
