And the guy he beat (Wilder) - his best win was against a 40yr old who was ranked no.6 at the time. Fury is no.1 only because of how the ratings system works. If a random bum had beaten Wilder he would also be no.1 in the same way - but doesn't mean he's the best in the division
I don't get your rematch point - I was talking about their first fight. Wilder WANTED to rematch Fury immediately but Fury turned him down. He can't make Fury fight him.
Also why do Wilder and AJ have lots more title defences on their record than Fury? Fury has zero so far.
