    Oh, I don't know, because that "one good win" just happened to be against one of the most dominant HW champions of all time? On a huge undefeated run, and at the top of his game?

    When you beat a guy who is easily top 5 pound for pound, you should take his place on the list.
    At the top of his game? Fury barely threw any punches. I've seen more punches thrown in a NBA game.

      He beat the man. that's all.

      The record for least amount of punches thrown in a HW fight is David Haye against Valuev.

      Now THAT was a disgrace... haye fighting a man who would be classified as a cripple/handicap in most western countries, barely beat him, and threw like 8 punches a round on average (seriously0>

          He's definitely showing some bias with Fury and Brook being so high. LOL. However, I do agree with his criticism of Ward. It's go time. I need this fight to happen. I have been trying looking forward to it for about a year!!!

            I agree. I've had kov at the top of my list for a good while. Chocalito isn't far behind

              Chocolatito is clearly a more proven fighter than Kov....who is dangerous, but not as accomplished or fought as many good fighters as Chocolatito.....Roman was the first to stop Niida, won titles in 3 divisions, beat several top 5 flyweights, some went on to win titles like Yaegshi and Estrada...also skillwise, he can fight anywhere in the ring, throws awesome combos, has all the the skills, whereas Kovalev is good at what he does but backs up in straight lines, doesnt move his head much, has no inside game and mostly fights a long or mid range

              imo RCG is a more complete and more accomplished fighter

                  I think it's a fair opinion. Why wouldn't it be? It's not like chocalito and ward or GGG are knocking of PFP talent right now either.

                  It's a debate between GGG. Chalito, and kovalev or ward right now. Take your pick and back it up. And yes, if kov beats Ward there is not debate in terms of who the Pfp king is.

                    Klit was not at the top of his game nor was he consensus top 5 P4P... Fury shouldn't be up there...

                      Yes he was, and yes he was.

                      Maybe he didn't perform at the top of his game come fight night. But going into the fight, he was absolutely in his prime. Undefeated for what? Ten years? Beaten pretty much every top HW contender, and did so in dominant fashion.
