    End of 2018 who is the top dog in the heavyweight division??

    Give your top 5 in order here;

    1. Fury
    2. Wilder
    3. Joshua
    4. Ortiz
    5. Whyte

    Could be a few others to take that 5th spot but whyte has been very active and is on a role. Am sure others will have maybe povetkin, miller, pulev etc.

    I feel AJ would win more rounds vs Fury than Wilder did but that doesn`t mean I feel AJ would beat or fight Wilder.

    Usyk will score a lot of shots v Wilder according to what I saw against Fury, Wilder was clueless.

    1. Joshua (WBA/WBO/IBF/IBO)
    2. Fury
    3. Wilder (WBC)
    4. Povetkin
    5. Whyte

    I wasn't sure Fury was even back at being a top 10 fighter after the 2 low level return bouts, but he's back.

    You missed out Fury's lineal title. By its very definition means he is the no.1

    Povetkin wouldn`t be able to slip the shots Fury did vs Wilder. Fury looked far better against Wilder than AJ did vs Povetkin, he`s much harder to hit and has faster longer shots.

    Sorry after the fight it confirms beyond any reasonable doubt Wilder is lucky to be 9th or even 10th I think Daniel Dubois could defeat him right now. Wilder has no tactical awareness, no ring strategy or movement, no combo tech punches no vision or gears its either all or nothing with him. Fury made him look stupid and shows Wilder's resume as bloated and he cannot compete at top 10 level.

    Wilder would destroy Parker and Whyte.

    Dubious would never have caught Fury the way Wilder did last night.
