    Comments Thread For: Wilder-Fury Isn't Exactly Ali-Frazier, But I'll Take It

    At least that’s the opinion of some aficionados who long for the days of Ali or Holmes or Tyson and bemoan a perpetually weak crop of heavyweights, including the principals in the December 1 fight.
    Stopped reading there, this Micheal Rosenthal is a downer, trying to rain on the best fight of the year?! GTFOH!!! Everyone is excited for Wilder-Fury! What a hater!

        Both Wilder and Fury wouldn't even be near a world title in the 90s. I doubt Joshua would either. The level of skill is around the same as the Klitschko era, there's just no Klitschko, Joshua is the closest thing.

                  No fighter in any era beats Fury.
