    Fury has no belt but he ranks above a reigning champ and a unified champ. Don't think ive ever seen something like that before.

    It's been four and a half years since his last decent win.

    He has only has two wins over legit contender HWs and one of them is Chisora who everyone has beat.

    Definitely number one though!

    I'll never understand these Ring ratings.

    Tyson Fury hasn't scored a win since last summer. Povetkin hasn't won in MORE than a year since he was dropped against David Price. The only win Joseph Parker has had in the last two years came against Alexander Flores.

    Those ratings seem a little out of whack. I think Kownacki, Joe Joyce and Efe Ajagba should start getting a little more recognition and Ring should start moving old-timers like Povetkin out.

    Anyway, glad Tyson Fury is rated #1. This way, when Deontay Wilder knocks him out in the first round in their rematch, I won't have to listen to people talk about how Fury was only 5% of what he used to be. (LOL)

    Ye maybe but I wouldn't pick Ruiz over Fury.. & didn't Parker beat Ruiz?

    I wouldn't grumble at Ruiz being #1 but Fury is the best HW IMO

    BT Sport uploaded The Gypsy King vs Chisora II on their official YT channel today. Not sure if it's available for our cousins across the pond to view but it would be a shame if not because they're not used to seeing what real slickness (ie. Gypsy Slickness) looks like over there very often.

    Is that the top 10 or a list of fighters that Fury hasn't beaten?

    Fury 1, Ruiz 2, Joshua 3, Wilder 4, is how i see it. Fury holds wins over Wlad and a "draw" with Wilder in about over 90 percent of viewing audience believe he won.
    Ruiz just beat Joshua he vaults to number 2
    Joshua has wins against Wlad, Povetkin, Whyte, Parker - pretty deep resume for today but the loss drops him to 3.
    Wilder has wins over Ortiz and Stiverne and the "draw" with Fury in which most fans and experts believe the judges got it wrong.

    The irony, as Fury considers himself and Ruiz to both be fatties. Fury stans probably see Fury as an adonis huh?

    How about a few other non heavies? Maybe Canelo, GGG or Lomachenko?
