    That is how I see it. I wanna see Fury fighting those guys before he retires.

    I am not really interested in Kownacki, Ortiz, Whyte, Povetkin, Parker and others, because I don`t see them as a threat.
    Boxing fans today: guy has a loss and suddenly he's no threat.
    Fury can't do to Whyte what AP did.
    Whyte still a legit threat.

      Fury vs AJ is the only relevant fight on that list. Although, I'd like to see Andy Ruiz back in the mix if he can get his fat ass back in shape.

        Fury is an overrated steroid chump and AJ will KO him cold. It will make highlight reels. And then hopefully his fans will disappear like Wilder fans have

          Aj is a threat. I would favor fury to stop him late but he won't have it all his own way.

          If it goes to a decision you never know, aj has had some fairly wide scorecards in his favor

          I would like to see how hrgovic develops , probably too basic for fury but he seems powerful.

          Usyk also, looked the part at cruiserweight but obviously need to see him in with a few good big heavies

            Obviously not Wilder, Fury has had tougher fights than either of his 2 fights against Wilder.

            It has to be Joshua, followed by the up and comers like Hrgovic

              I've always thought AJ was all wrong for Wilder. To fight his fight he'll need to eat some shots from a heavy handed fighter on the way in and out. He was always comfortable coming in on Wilder. Wilder can't box, Joshua can.

              Usyk would be interesting. He's got everything over Fury but size.

              There are plenty of live opponents for Fury and he's looked poor plenty of times. I'd pick him him in any individual fight (maybe 50/50 with AJ) but not sure I'd back him to get through, say, 5 decent defences of the belt.

                Tough fights & dangerous fights are not the same thing. Ortiz wasn't finding it tough until he got caught & KO'd - nobody else comes close to being as dangerous as Wilder. You can outbox him the whole fight but if he's still in there he's still super dangerous.

                Also, who gave Fury a tougher fight than Wilder in the first fight? He was literally unconscious on the canvas in the final round.

                  Helenius? Wtf? Too5 risky for him for me are

                  Povetkin would be dangerous because of his skill and timing risk.

                  Wilder is similar to Povetkin but with less skill and more youth / speed.

                  Joshua for obvious reasons, he is an all rounder and can box aswell as hit hard.

                  Whyte, fury would be favourite but far from guaranteed.

                  Parker - Parker can box but less power - almost certainly would go the distance but fury would be favourite for sure.

                    Ortiz is an old man. Lots of fighters are as dangerous as Wilder...against farmers. The rest of the top heavies actually have a decent resume, Wilder been outclassed by the only top heavyweight he fought.

                    Wallin gave Fury a better fight, he won more rounds. If he were unconscious the fight would be over. He got knocked down, like he has in numerous fights, he got up and won the fight.

                      AJ, Hrgovic and Usyk are the biggest threats ,though Usyk has a great size disadvantage there .

                      Wilder has shown he’s really not a threat to a on point Fury . And listing some odd fighters with no real evidence they prove much danger then a Whyte would in that style clash . You then have Joyce who would potentially bombard him and there’s a guy named Wallin who is clearly better then some of guys who can handle unorthodox fighters being a moving southpaw himself with size and very good people behind him .
