    How many fighters are Fury's size? There's not many out there, and whilst i agree that it would've been nice to see him against a giant (partly to help prepare for Wlad, and partly to shut his haters up) those two wins alone make his resume superior to the likes of Wilder, Stiverne, Wach etc.

    Wach, Ustinov, Wilder, Price, Pulev, Thimpson... Just from the top of my head. Fights against Price and Pulev were eve offered to him but he didn't fight them.

    And I think Wilder's win over Stiverne is superior to everything Fury did so far and also arguably Stiverne's two wins against Arreola are better than any wins of Fury.

      Fight Pulev in a Russian leisure centre for peanuts or fight David Haye on PPV for 3 million quid, yeah it was a tough choice.

      Is this the same Stiverne who was stopped by a jouneyman & looked like absolute **** in the biggest fight of his life? Chris "I ate all the buffet" Arreola is garbage, and his style was made for Stiverne.

        Klitschko vs Wach was entertaining.

        Wach vs Fury would be interesting.

        But AFTER Wlad, list goes

        Povetkin
        Wilder
        Jennings
        Fury
        Pulev

        Tbh, Takam can be on that list...

          I like your list. I think Chisora is just not good enough to hang with the biggest boys anymore..

            Fury is so overrated it's not even funny.
            Povetkin, Wilder, Jennings can ALL beat him.

            The british boxing fans seem to aways hype up new potentially great british boxers. Haye, who got wrecked by wlad. Price.. who's now a bum.. anthony joshua wtf? The dude fought no one and people are placing him above Wilder...

            Lastly Fury, who the **** is this guy? A dude who got floored by cunningham ahahahaha

              why is Joshua in so many top 5s? Yes he is an unbelievable talent and an exceptional prospect but thats just what he is, a prospect.

                head to head he may very well be top 5 already despite the lack of experience. that guys got some serious potential

                  Parker and Joshua are on an accelerated learning curve.

                  If they aren't "top 5" yet, they soon will be. They're fighting more often than other heavyweights, and they're actually doing the job on veterans faster than anyone has done in the past.

                    I will tell you this. as a wlad fan id be more nervous if he was fighting joshua next as opposed to wilder. hes just much more sturdy and more well rounded imo
