        sure, if he dominates the division. But this is a weak HW division, Fury is the only decent HW, so he'll be at the lower tier of HW ATGs, just like Klit who dominated a weak era.

            Yes of course.

            Tyson Fury is a all-time great now, not fighter high on the rankings but? He is a all-time great.

            Anthony Joshua is also a all-time great.

              Tired of Fury getting all this praise over beating Wilder who many call a bum an the worst boxer ever to win a heavyweight title!

              The way people talk about the win you’d think Wilder would’ve had 15 Prime ATG heavyweights on his resume and knocked them all out an then Fury best him on a legendary run!

                No he got to do more than beat Wilder, ATGs have many big names and generally have many years of ATG performances, Fury has done fck all in an era of very weak HWs.

                  I thought most on here didn't have him losing the lineal championship during his retirements, ban and inactivity?

                  Don't get me wrong, I agree with that, it's just surprising to see people agreeing with that view.

                  Personally, I don't even have him winning it back. I think there's too much doubt as to whether Fury v Wilder II was the best two heavyweights.

                    Why so much weight on the tin, it has nothing to do with the trophy and everything to do with who you took it off, politics business and fanism is what creates title fights, we are talking all time great fighter not a guy that caught the right trophys, Fury needs to do a lot more in the ring to be an ATG HW.
