The heavyweight division is easily the most prominent and noticeable division in any combat sport. Boxing is no different. In boxing, the division packs some of the best fighters of all time, with inhuman strength and speed. Some of the very notable names in the division, at the moment, are Tyson Fury, Oleksandr Usyk, Anthony Joshua, and a few others.
When the idea of putting all of these names against each other is put forward, fans are naturally divided in their opinions. Everyone wants to see a clash of the Titans, but who will stand out victorious among them is the real question. Along similar lines, IFLTV shared a post on X. Let us see what the post was about in detail.

Fury beat Joshua and Hrgovic defeated Zhang in 2022, but all of them have been extremely close bouts. A rematch today could go either way for every fighter on the list. However, fans seemed to think otherwise. Let’s take a look at what the comments section looked like for these hypothetical matchups.
Tyson Fury vs. Others
Fans passionately aligned with their favorite fighters, resulting in a diverse array of reactions. “On current form, Joseph Parker,” opined one fan, backing Parker after his win incredible win over Deontay Wilder in December last year.
