Ali v Foreman is a good comparison.
Not that either fighter can be compared to them, but the fight has a few similarities. Wilder like Foreman is the huge puncher and stopping pretty much everyone put in front of him. Fury is seen as the boxer with movement but seen as past his best for the reasons we all know. Fury also defied the odds and won his titles from Wlad, when not many give him a chance, like when Ali beat Liston.
Most people are writing Fury off and think Wilder will stop him, like many thought Foreman had too much for Ali by that point. -
Ali and Foreman. After fury beats Wilder in post interview, he will say don't ever make me underdog until I balloon up to 500lbs, take heroin and drink 101 pints a week instead of the 100 and take a 4 year career break.Comment

None of those 3 fights strike any real resemblance IMO.
There are parallels between Ali-Frazier 1, in the sense Fury is the former/lineal champion coming back, Frazier was also Ali’s third fight back of his comeback. But Ali-Frazier was a fight of far greater magnitude.Comment
