    Above Klitschko and Povetkin :rofl :nut It's ridiculous he should be no higher than 9th in my opinion.

    Boxing Monthly is actually the best credible source for their overall rankings, I suppose no one can get it all right but this is a shocking biased ranking or ridiculous mistake.

    That is bad. Wow. That is the sort of ranking that destroys credibility. Defeating Prince I can't even remember his name already haha elevates you over Wlad and Povetkin wow.

    That's horrible. Both Josua and Wilder should be below Wlad and Povetkin. Shows the Eastern European bias.

    AJ still hasn't fought anyone worth a danm. I think he is going to have a great career and one day earn that rank but he still has a ways to go.
