    Just been thinking about my No.1, and was thinking the same, but considering the way their fight went, despite Furys poor year, I have Wilder 1A, Fury 1B because of that

    The number one ducker for sure.
    It’s easy to rematch an old man you’ve already beaten, not so easy to immediately rematch a man who humiliated and took everything away from you.

    Wilder doesn’t have a win over an elite opponent. Fury and Joshua do.

    After that, Wilder has beaten Ortiz. Best after that probably Stiverne. Fury hasn’t fought anyone of any importance for a very long time. Whilst Joshua has beaten Whyte, Ruiz, Parker and Povetkin.

    It’s clearly Joshua. Maybe Fury if he’d fought the likes of Pulev and Ortiz this year. But he didn’t.

    After watching that sparring session in Saudi, it's clear the top two are miles clear of the rest. Fury the best for me, he beat Wilder while being 60% fit.

    His power mainly. His destruction of Breazeale and Ortiz trump a loss and a points win over Ruiz or a win over Schwarz and Wallin.

    Agreed.

    I think the obvious choice for 2nd is Fury but we will see if he has the cojones to take that rematch. i have my doubts. He needs to start fighting proper opponents now.

    3rd is a weird one for me. I’d say Joshua but there's a couple of unproven guys I’d pick to beat him like Usyk and Hrgovic.

    Kind of agree. I shamefully have Fury as #1 as I thought he won their fight. Either way, those two are 1 and 2 for me.
    AJ can have his 3 spot back

    Forget about cv,s. Fury number one heavyweight for me. He beat wilder. Never was a draw.

    Wilder 2nd

    Joshua 3rd.

    If we,re talking recent cv,s fair enough....but until someone bests fury hes number one for me anyway.

    Imo fury and Joshua both beat wilder handily usyk would make wilder look like a 2 fight novice . You can't have wilder at number 1 purely for his power a 45 year old man was making him look completely suite, the day wilder can't land is the day everybody realises just how limited he is and it will happen .
