    I don't really like Fury as a guy, but he's got to look pretty damn good after tonight... whether he can get anything together is another story, but he does deserve some benefit of the doubt.


    AJ
    WLAD
    Wilder
    Ortiz

    Just my personal list.

    I don't see how the Joshua vs Wlad fight makes Fury look better. Wlad was absolutely shocking against Fury and JUST lost.

    I have it the same. Fury is out for inactivity and being unlicensed. Parker then Pulev after that.

    As far as im concerned until someone beats Fury he has to remain top of the pile
    I honestly would be amazed if anyone in the division can handle his size and awkward style, as much as i don't like watching the way he "fights" he's a fucking nightmare of an opponent for anyone.
    He made Wlad look like a little boy and toyed with him for fun whereas AJ was the total opposite and had to fight for his life and climb off the floor to win.
    I'd rather watch AJ all day long over Fury as i wanna see fights that entertain but Fury for me is the man to beat.
    The best matchup in the division is Wilder v AJ for me - i also think the Klitschko we saw on Saturday would beat Wilder

    Fury
    Joshua
    Klitschko
    Wilder
    Parker

    I agree with your comments on Fury but at the end of May it will be over 18 months since he last fought. He is unlicensed and has an alleged failed drug test/ hearing hanging over his head. How much leeway do you give him?

    I think seeing AJ lording it up in front of 90,000 fans and parading Furys belts around will have seriously got under Furys skin and will 100% be the kick up the ass he needs to get his nut down and return to the ring.

    He must have sat there watching the fight on Saturday thinking that should be me, will he be the same fighter though, he's 27 stone at the moment

    That's why I was asking as you had Fury #1 even after all the inactivity. We really don't know what he'll be like if he returns.

    Some people give fury too much credit. He was not that good of a fighter. He had a good win against wlad, but he really never looked impressive at all in any other fight. Sure he won, but he had a lot more trouble with other fighters than he did with wlad.

    If he were active, I'm fine with him being #1, but it's not like he's Floyd mayweather on a hiatus who is clearly the best fighter in the world. If fury ever did comeback, I doubt he really does much.
