He has beaten Fury and Joshua. Two B + heavies at best.
Oh yeah, totally, Fury and Joshua are nowhere near as good as Wladimir Klitschko. The only reason I ever ranked them so high is that they both... DOMINATED WLADIMIR F*CKING KLITSCHKO!

Wladimir was still quite prime when he fought them. Many people were saying that with the style that Wlad adopted against Joshua, that he was in the best form of his career. And we have no evidence of him losing to any non-elite fighters in his late years.

if you wanna tell me 41 year old last fight klit was prime then i do not know how to respond because that is madness...

That said, i see AJ and Fury as A grade fighters. just wouldent put em above klit just because they beat klit (who was old)...
