    I’ll explain:
    1. He became top 5 by beating the **** out of Jennings, who himself was top 5.
    2. He fought Wilder in 2018 and almost won, keeping his top 5 ranking.
    3. He fought Wilder again in 2019, and almost won again, keeping himself either top 5 or top 10 rated.
    *in between he beat various top 30 guys and Hammer, who was top 20 or top 15, keeping himself active enough to not get dropped

    Age discrimination should not factor into ratings.

    I don't know, because Wilder is getting the first shot at the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION before he is. (LOL)

    That's going to be a rough moment for him.

    Sucks to be Whyte.

    Maybe Whyte can celebrate STILL NOT GETTING a title shot by putting on more weight, failing his drug test again, and huffing his way to another 10-round decision against another late sub. Oh, and blaming Wilder.

    That's his move. Whyte's in the zone.

    Why not? Beat the almighty Jennings, should be as high as Ortiz in that case

    Three Brits at the top, never thought I would see that. Pretty crazy for such a small country.

    I have to say I think Boxrec rankings for heavyweight are more accurate and fair though.

    Fury would destroy those guys and so would Usyk.
