    There are sooo many good fights to be made in the heavyweight division right now if they'll just Fight! Parker and Dubois fought themselves back into contention by being active after some losses.

    That's a pretty good top 10 to be fair.

    That's a really good list. It's similar to how I would have it.

    Good call, I'd bet an all heavyweight card would rake in the ppv cash.

    Huni dropped out, and Ajagba moved down to make way for Wardley

    Only thing I'd change maybe is Chisora over Ajagba, after beating Joyce, other than though, no real complaints about this list

    Champion: Usyk
    1. Fury
    2. Dubois
    3. Joshua
    4. Parker
    5. Zhang
    6. Kabayel
    7. Bakole
    8. Hrgovic
    9. Chisora
    10. Joyce (He lost to Chisora but that was a good fight)
    11. Wardley
    12. ??????? (Wallin, Huni, Ajagba, Itauma, Sanchez, Hunter)

    I would really cool and helpful to see more fights between the Top 11-20.

    Champ thru the 4th spot makes sense (id probably move Parker above Dubios but no big deal)

    5-7 sure, whatever order you want I can see the cases to be made

    8 off the strength of his win 2 years ago over Zhang......sure I guess

    9-10 I'd put Chisora there then Ajagba with Wardley right behind them at 11, but it's close between them all. Ajagba has beaten 3 prospects in his last 4 fights, Wardley just KOd Festus Clarke, and Chisora beat Joe Joyce.

    After that we are in hypotheticals

    Ah forgot Huni was there, he should be nowhere near. Thanks.

    I don’t understand why people are so eager to put Ajagba in the top ten while Sanchez has a win over Ajagba. Shouldn’t Sanchez be above Ajagba? What has Ajagba done that erases that loss?

    Not much, but Sanchez hasn't had a win this year, and has a stoppage loss. His opposition after Ajagba has been soft, until he faced Kabayel.

    Ajagba has won five times and not lost since his Sanchez fight, one this year (although it was very close). Sanchez' win over Ajagba was three years ago.
