    AJ should be given the lineal boxing champion now Wilder or the others won't fight him.
    This says who the true no1 in the HWs is.

    And who's is it to give him? It's an intangible honor. The man who beat the man.

    It's nothing you can give and it's a nonsensial title nowadays. Usually for duckers and cheats without real titles to feel somewhat relevant.

    Why? Fury hasn't lost, died, or permanently retired

    Fury is still the lineal champion. He beat Wlad, who beat Chagaev to create a new lineage after Lewis retired, Lewis beat Rahman, who beat Lewis, who beat Briggs, and so on.

    Bit of an ironic paradox there , who did Wlad beat to become lineal ? .

    He very well might be number 1 in the division but still not lineal champ. Watch Rummy's video.

    The number 2 ranked HW starts a new lineage ?. So the man who beats the man starts with a number 2 man ?. Please explain how that works ?. I thought it's the man who beat the man ? Yes . Now it's the man who is number 2 who never beat the man . Eh?

    Meaningless tag line, the 4 world titles are the only things that count
