Top 5 HWs?

On Paper;

1. Ruiz Jr
2. Wilder
3. Joshua
4. Fury
5. Whyte

My opinion;

1. Joshua
2. Fury
3. Ruiz Jr
4. Whyte
5. Wilder

 

1 Ruiz
2 Wilder
3 Fury
4 Joshua
5 Whyte

 

1 Ruiz
2 Fury
3 Joshua
4 Whyte
5 Wilder

 

Suppose you gotta put Ruiz at number 1, that win over AJ is better than anything on Fury or Wilder's CV unless you count Fury beating Wlad but was tainted by TF testing positive and being stripped just after.

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

 

What is this based on? Resume/ Status or head to head?

 

Resume (quality):

1.Ruiz Jr
2. AJ/Whyte
3 AJ/Whyte
4. Fury
5. Wilder

Head to head

1. Whyte/Fury
2. Whyte/Fury
3. Wilder
4. AJ
5. Ruiz

Current status/official ranking

1. Ruiz
2. Whyte
3. Wilder
4. AJ
5. Fury

 

I did three different rankings based on resume quality, head to head and current status/ official ranking.

I used a matrix on paper to figure out who I think would beat who in the top 5, and for Whyte and Fury I gave them the best chance of winning the most times if all 5 faced each other:

Head to Head

Whyte could beat - AJ, Ruiz, Wilder
Fury could/already has beat - Wilder, Whyte, Ruiz

AJ would only beat Fury
Ruiz could only beat AJ
Wilder could beat both AJ and Ruiz.

Current status

Ruiz has the most belts, beat the best opponent/challenge
Whyte is the interim WBC champion, and he beat better opposition than Wilder to get it, and even after Wilder got it.
AJ had three belts before he lost them
Wilder has one belt, but was protected byt the WBC and took one mandatory every three years, and constantly ducks credible opponents, and is useless as a champion
Fury polishes his non existent lineal belt everyday, and has turned into a mime artist, he has no belt, and the last time he did was a long minute ago.

 

Sure..

I just don't think he gave Ruiz any respect at all and completely overlooked him, he went for a finish that wasn't available whilst neglecting defense and paid the price - s*** happens! He was beaten by the better man on the night.

I genuinely think he comes back to comfortably beats Ruiz and the rest, he's the only guy I back to beat Fury.

When Usyk arrives at HW, it's a different story and he could take over - but from the current roster, yes I think AJ is #1.

 

Look at Fury's recent fights, just one guy, Wilder...? Who we all knew has **** resume, and **** boxing skills.

Fury is pathetic... calling our Trevor Bryan... TREVOR ****ING BRYAN?? WHO THE **** IS HE????

And Schwarz, Pianeta, Seferi... **** this guy who people call the greatest.
