His thrilling 11th-round knockout of Deontay Wilder in their trilogy bout on Saturday, which served surprisingly as the first title defense of Fury's career, only further solidified who is the division's best fighter.  Fury's work, of course, is far from done. The WBC and lineal champion still hopes to become the division's first undisputed king of the four-belt era. That can't happen until unified champion Oleksandr Usyk defends his newly acquired WBA, WBO and IBF titles in early 2022 against Anthony Joshua in a contractually obligated rematch.  \n        \n\nCan't get enough boxing and MMA?

The 33-year-old from Great Britain is a unicorn from the standpoint of the speed and quickness that his 6-foot-9 frame is able to produce. Yet it's the manner in which he switched gears to finish Wilder in both their second and third meetings that continues to build upon his growing legend.  Fury relied on his slickness to survive a pair of knockdowns against Wilder in their first meeting in 2018, which went down as a disputed split draw. But he sought out new trainer SugarHill Steward, the nephew of the late Hall of Famer Emmanuel Steward, to teach him the Kronk Gym style of using his size and aggression to seek knockouts.  \n        \n\nThe 2020 rematch between Wilder and Fury was a one-sided demolition. Their third meeting was anything but. Fueled by revenge, Wilder proved willing to leave it all in the ring and forced Fury to rely on his backbone and recuperative abilities to rise up from the canvas twice more against the sport's biggest puncher only to score three knockdowns of his own en route to a vicious KO win.  Not only are Fury's skills and technique worthy of pound-for-pound recognition among his peers in the game, his heart and will deserve even more praise. Regardless of who comes out of the Usyk-Joshua rematch or whether Fury is forced to defend his WBC title first against mandatory challenger Dillian Whyte, he is making it increasingly hard to bet against him in any proposed matchup among active heavyweights.Pound-for-Pound RankingsHonorable mention: Juan Francisco Estrada, Artur Beterbiev, Srisaket Sor Rungvisai, Yordenis Ugas, Shakur
