Official Heavyweight Boxing Rankings - Updated Regularly After the Ukranian master, who is the second best defensive heavyweight in the world today? Parker? Kabayel?
Jake ''Money'' Paul He weighed 227lbs for his last fight so technically he's the 2nd best defensive HW now and not the #1 best defensive CW anymore
Actually I think Pulev has the best defence on that list, at least he did. He couldn't defend anything against Wlad for some reason but usually he's not so easy to hit clean.
Michael Hunter Super underrated but he's to blame for that. Since moving up to HW Hunter's been very tepid if not lazy but he has the talent to carry him anyway. A bit like Fury, who I'd rate as 2 if not for "retirement". In that if they take the fighter seriously and show up in shape to win then you're in for a show but if it's an easy night then dude's going to coast and do the minimum of what he has to do to win. Also like Fury he's only lost to Usyk It's hard for me to judge where Hunter is mentally, but I still believe his skills are there for now. Hunter may have got his ass kicked by Usyk but **** man that was a good fight. If you have not, watch Usyk dismantle Hunter, I dare say it is his most beautiful work. Hell, both of theirs tbh. They both fought very well.
