Take a breath. It's not what I think, it's what boxing writers thought. Many consider TBRB the gold standard ranking, even above Ring ratings....
Otto Wallin was regarded as Top #5 by TBRB based on his previous performance against Fury and following his win over Gasiev. Many were also...
Andy Ruiz Jr. may well be the best American heavyweight. It's a shame Wilder ducked him. Ruiz Jr. has a win over Joshua. Wilder doesn't have a...
Think the thread title should be, Joshua and Fury. Fury was the champion of the WBC/PBC/American circuit. Usyk beat him. Joshua was the champion...
Btw @MorvidusStyle @Decker about that American--global issue and the old pros fighting mainly among themselves in America. Interesting, but... So...

Hypothetically, Step 1: Saudis make Usyk v Fury II and Fury wins Step 2: Saudis make Fury v Joshua and Joshua wins Step 3: Saudis make Joshua v...
Quite possibly, he is breaking down his peers with body work - that is not something we often see. But, unfortunately, he isn't getting a title...
Yeah, I agree on the recency bias. Now I admit, I was happy that Usyk won. But I was already firmly in the camp of whoever did win needed to give...
Sure. Pacjik caught him clean down the pipe, and the bigger they are the harder they fall. But he got up quickly, took the count, and didn't seem...
