Top 11 heavyweights since 2015

Sure, the context that Fury was in terrible condition and badly gassed does make it mean less though, at least for me.

 

Tough question and has to be taken over a decade
Some fighters possibly get rated higher fir fights that didn't happen which prevents losing
Also some may drop down due to a loss to another fighter who perhaps didn't do as much overall or for not having a title

Usyk
Joshua
I think are arguably 1 & 2

Fury
Probably at 3

Below in no order, but I think could be mentioned
Whyte
Parker
Dubois
Wilder
Joyce
Povetkin
Pulev
Ruiz

 

Heres a top 12. I did it in alphabetical order because I feel this era hasn't provided enough information to rank them. But based on everything thats happened the last 10 years I think these were the 12 best guys.


Andy Ruiz
Dubois
Frank Sanchez
Fury
Hrgovic
Joshua
Kabayel
Luis Ortiz
Parker
Usyk
Wilder
Zhang

 

I think Wilder has become a bit underrated. I don't even like the guy and I know the pendulum has swung the other way from him being massively overrated, but not having him in the Top 10 is crazy!

1. Usyk
2. Fury
3. AJ
4. Parker
5. Wilder
6. Dubois
7. Whyte
8. Ruiz
9. Povetkin
10. Joyce
11. Kabayel

Honorable mentions: Hrgović, Zhang

 

No depth, Kind of depressing. Wilder and Fury were barely in any interesting/good title defences until they fought each other. Immediatley after that everyone got)rematch clauses in their Usyk contracts. That has slowed down he division for a decade. At least AJ fought some decent fighters when Fury was punishing his nostris and murdering hamburgers while

 

Hahahahaha, funny one. We all know why you did that. You can’t bring yourself to give the man some credit right?

 

No its because most of the list do not have enough relevant feats to be accurately sorted.

I'm open to considering Usyk the best HW of this dysfunctional era. 90% of my problem with Usyk is his fans pretending hes making history.
