Re: Where does Tyson Fury rank in the Greatest Heavyweight list?
Good idea - I didn't actually do my own

I've cut and pasted the relevant part here. Again, just one man's opinion.
Fury vs Jack Johnson – Fury by close decision (in a bout scheduled for 10-to-15-rounds; if it the fight distance is 20 rounds or more, I’ve going with Li’l Arthur)
Agree maybe not even close
Fury vs Jack Dempsey – Fury by unanimous decision or late stoppage (but I think Dempsey has a shot at catching him in the early rounds)
Agree
Fury vs Joe Louis – Fury by close decision (but I think he has to survive some wobbly moments and maybe a knockdown)
Louis by SD
Fury vs Rocky Marciano – Fury by late stoppage
Agree
Fury vs Sonny Liston – Liston by close decision (thanks to a knockdown or two)
Yep I don't get this prediction either. Liston would quit or be DQ around same time he did with Ali
Fury vs Muhammad Ali – Ali by unanimous decision
Agree totally
Fury vs Joe Frazier – Frazier by close decision
Fury stoppage late - size would tell
Fury vs George Foreman – Fury by close decision (but Big George, of course, has a real shot at clipping the Gypsy King)
George by KO within 5
Fury vs Larry Holmes – Holmes by unanimous decision
One of them by SD - pick em. SO I'll say Draw !
Fury vs Mike Tyson – Fury by unanimous decision (but just like Dempsey, Iron Mike has a real shot at ending the fight early)
Survive early rounds and I have Fury winning late. I think he would - Fury by late stoppage
Fury vs Evander Holyfield – Fury by close, maybe majority or split decision in a great fight
Fury by UD
Fury vs Riddick Bowe – Big Daddy by close decision in a great fight
Again - pick em. I'll say Fury by SD
Fury vs Lennox Lewis – Lewis by unanimous decision
Agree
Fury vs Vitali Klitchsko – Klitschko by close decision in a mutually punishing fight
Yep have to agree
Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
