How can he be a clear second when he clearly lost to Andy Ruiz who you don‘t rate as number 1 ? Imo it‘s 1. Wilder/Fury ( Rematch will decide who the real number 1 is ) 2. Ruiz jr. 3. Joshua
I already did. It was more character and less soldier mentality over him this time. Other hm's: Chisora. Whyte. Breazeale. Ruiz jr. Povetkin. Etc.
Me too, I may question Joshua's fighting spirit or his preparation, but he took the loss like a man, with all class. Much respect to AJ.
I respect the bodybuilder for being beat down by a fatso, who lives in Taco Bell. and I'll respect Joshua more in the rematch, if he bends over in the corner David Price style, to beaten down against this ferocious bob.
I dont see how Fury jumed ahead of AJ, he dosnt have the quality of wins AJ has. 1. Ruiz 2. AJ 3. Fury 4. Whyte 5. Povetkin 6. Parker 7. Wilder 8. Pulev 9. Ortiz 10. Hunter
Joshua's resume is pretty solid despite his recent loss. Ruiz needs to show that he can win fights against other top heavyweights over an extended period.
Fury ahead of AJ is way more logical in rankings at really and has to be now ( though I i think he gets his clock cleaned with AJ ) then having Ruiz at 1 off of one fight . Most of the time you do replace the fighters rankings but Ruiz should be no higher then 4 . I dsont even have him as top 5 bc I don't think he beats Povetkin or Whyte . Fury has no defeats and has a unofficial wilder win , AJ does. Sure Ruiz won but seriously if he then gets defeated by AJ ( and he will ) where will you have number ONE Ruiz then at number 2 ? If you have AJ at 2 ? how are you shifting your rankings ? lol How is Wilder at 7 ? And Parker is a SIX with back to back losses and no relevant wins since IDK 2017 ? come'on now!
