    Vote for the best heavyweight fight since 2010 (add suggestions in the comments as I’ve definitely missed some lower level ones)?

    That KO in Alexander Povetkin vs Dillian Whyte 1 was a thing of beauty.

    Close between Fury vs Wilder III and Joshua vs Klitschko.
    Povetkin vs Takam was nice too.

    Joshua vs Ruiz Jr 1.

    Enlightened many casual boxing fans, exposed frauds, slipped masks. Ended Wilder vs AJ hype.

    Fury vs Wilder 3 by a considerable margin.

    Whyte vs Parker wasn't too shabby either.

    If you don't mind skill-less slopfests then Arreola vs Kownacki was pretty action packed.

    I think Joshua/Wladimir was slightly better than Wilder/Fury III, but one of those two.

    I agree, it’s the best heavyweight fight since 2010 (and of this century imo). I also think Klitschko vs AJ was a very special fight.

    Those were great, imo the first one was the better, both absolute slugfests. Arreola vs Kownacki was also an absolute war. Whyte vs Joshua wasn’t half bad either.

    Povetkin vs Hunter.

    Povetkin vs Takam.

    And of course Povetkin vs Whyte 1. It's actually shocking how slow and sloppy Povetkin looks here compared to the above fights, and even more shocking that he managed to pull off the win.

    Yeah the first one was better despite the lack of a knockout. Just a back and forth war for the whole duration.

    Whyte vs Joshua was a bit too one-sided to be enjoyable. Aside from the single moment of success Whyte had it was all one-way traffic.
