"..And three, I’ve got too many styles for them. Four, I’m an adapter." Compatible with i-phone?

Tyson Fury is tall but he is not really that much bigger than Lennox Lewis 'If he was to come in as solid as Joshua he would be weighing in under 250 pounds'.

But since his comeback he has been unable to duplicate his condition that he had up against Kiltschko. Most of these superheavyweights these days have created a illusion, they are not monsters.

Most if not all of them are out of condition 'Stereotypically speaking', it is only really Anthony Joshua who is solid at the weight.

So is Tyson Fury a evolutionary improvement on the fighters from the 70's,80's,90's? I don't entirely believe the theory of evolution, but nowhere in nature do creatures get bigger, more clumsy and out of condition as to improve their chances of survival 'Nature does not work like that, Nature refines itself'.

Note: I know Tyson Fury is not out of condition, it is just his body type. But what I am stating is? If he was solid at the weight, he would be fighting at 250 + pounds or just under 250 pounds.

Agree overall with your comment although I don't believe in biological evolution in the least bit. Creatures do adapt though and as you say it is by being refined, not enlarged. I've seen many fights where a smaller but better fighter beats a taller and heavier one. Many smaller heavyweights carry more than enough punching power to KO someone as large as Fury. Fury is good but certainly not an all time great.

Have to reign for quite a long time and beat Wilder again, two against Joshua, and some more future HOF caliber guys before he gets that honor. But hey he really might be too big for any of the guys of the past. He's a nightmare style for most guys of the past coupled with his size. The only guy (style wise) I can see being trouble for Fury is Lennox Lewis and maybe Vitali (who was always leaps and bounds better than little brother).

He’s the greatest cheater that ever lived!

Very cunning and premeditated all his cheating ways but even the smartest get caught in their schemes!

Someone so great shouldn’t have to use PED’s, tamper his gloves, and fight dirty to get an edge over opponents he all call bums!

How many passes will Fury continue to get?

If this was all Wilder, we would never hear the end of it!

Fury

And 5 I've got the best PEDs that money can buy something all the others couldn't get. And 6 no one can match me rabbit punching and who can stop a 6' 9 273lb bully with
average boxing skills anyway.

This man can't call Himself the GOAT, he's not even proven he's the greatest of this Era yet, still needs to fight Wilder again and then AJ.
The Great's that Fury just mentioned fought 15 round Wars.. Fury got dropped on his ass twice against Wilder who has very little Boxing skill, imagine what Muhammad Ali would do.
Just because he hasn't lost yet doesn't mean he's the greatest we will find out how great he is after he gets knocked out for real and has to come back from adversity

If you add up all the losses of Tyson’s fury’s opponents it comes to 181 losses and he has only ever beaten 2 heavyweights that have ever been ranked in the top 10 of the division and those 181 losses have been accumulated in just 31 fights
He has never defended his title one time
Klitchcko and wilder and the nearest one to that was dereck chisora...that is how bad his pro career is.
The likes of Ali had Liston , Paterson ,Frazier ,foreman ,Norton , shavers
Lewis had Holyfield ,ruddock ,Tyson ,klitchcko,mercer, Morrison, golota
And this clown talks about being the best ever ffs

[Mickey Pearson]

Best all time heavyweight is calzaghe😁

Disagree as he'd have to beat Ali, Louis, Lewis, Foreman, Johnson and many others before he's entitled to be called the greatest HW.

objectively he's so much taller than those guys...it's not even a question of 'if he'd beat them'. Foreman at 6ft4 was a monster of his time. Athletes/fighters are bigger/stronger/better now than they used to be. Maybe down the line this will change because people are hooked on internet **** and gaming..but the ones who grew up in the 90s/early 00s were lived a more physical lifestyle bt also got the benefits of natural selection and nutrition etc.

The better way to compare them is relative to how they dominated their era. If Fury beat all those names or a good chunk of them, id have no doubt that he's beaten more top names and has been the dominant HW of this era.

Lol... this idiot never for once defend any of his belts and also got lucky against Otto

If a unanimous decision is luck then I agree...
