    Spencer did more for the sport of boxing than Usuck.

    Unfortunately a few wins over AJ and going the distance with Chisora + Witherspoon doesn't match up to Wlad, Wilder, Whyte & stopping Chisora

    People take exception with Taylor being on there, and FTR I have no problem whatsoever with him being removed after his last fight, but Jermello should be 1-1 in his last two fights and Castano fought him in his country twice with seven of the eight officials coming from the US. And ever so unsurprisingly Castano was screwed by those home judges in both fights

    117-111 and 114-114 in the first fight and in the rematch one of the judges only gave Castano a round and another only two prior to the finish

    So it's all well and good saying you won the rematch, but you won it on a deck so stacked your opponent has to KO you to come away with a draw and risk getting KO'd themselves in the process of trying to do so

    Not knocking where Usyk is, he can definitely be anywhere between 1-5 I won't complain, however, I don't understand how you can move ahead of guys that were ahead of you by beating someone that you already beat. That doesn't make sense to me.

    Also, Loma does not belong on this list at this point. No one should be cracking the top 10 without being a current champion ( and I'm not a Loma hater, I thought Loma was #1 before the loss)

    Taylor should be off the list. Beterbiev should be higher than Bivol. Spence should move a few spots, I don't understand why Spence is rated higher than Charlo when Spence is less proven than Charlo. Other than that, meh, we could debate. But those 4 guys are placed incorrectly.

    Fury needed juice to beat 68 year old wlad, then got knocked down 4 times while fighting can crusher windmill lol.
    Usyk never got popped juicing, never down. Undisputed cruiser and unified heavyweight champion . Much better fighter with better resume ,he already achieved a lot more than Fury ever will.

    Usyk is definitely 1 or 2 imo (I would argue 1), I agree though, it's weird he passed Inoue for beating a guy he already beat by a closer decision.

    Yeah but he pretty much beat the top 3 HW in the division, and he is a ***** CW.
    I wanna see Inoue beating a guy 24 pounds higher than him, which is also a CLEAR by a huge margin fighter in that division. For me specifically AJ beats everyone in that division with the exception of Usyk.
