    Hipefully the last time I make this list without tyson fury for a very long time. If he beats Pianeta and doesn't look terrible, I'll consider him active and probably move him up to #3. For now:
    1. AJ
    2. Wilder
    3. Povetkin
    4. Ortiz
    5.Whyte
    6. Parker
    7. Miller
    8. Pulev
    9.Brazaele
    10. Chisora

    If Jennings beats Dimitrenko this weekend, I'll probably return him to the list as well.

    My Top 10 RIGHT NOW:

    1. Anthony Joshua
    2. Deontay Wilder
    3. Tyson Fury
    4. Luis Ortiz
    5. Alexander Povetkin
    6. Dillian Whyte
    7. Jarrell Miller
    8. Joseph Parker
    9. Andy Ruiz Jr.
    10. Dereck Chisora

    I do not rank Dominic Breazeale and Kubrat Pulev right now as they both haven't fought this year, Pulev even inactive for 16 months.

    It's the passing of an era. So far I haven't seen Haye on any of these lists.

    That's fair about Pulev. I go back and forth about whether to include him, but now he has a fight scheduled so I lean the other way.

    Good list when counting Fury as active. Agree on the Ortiz caveat. Where would you rank Chisora on a top 15 list?

    11. Hughie Fury
    12. Dereck Chisora
    13. Carlos Takam
    14. Andy Ruiz jr.
    15. Adam Kownacki

    Hughie Fury i would rate above Chisora because he is younger and would beat him H2H with his style.

    I still think Takam is a better fighter than Chisora and Chisora got a bit lucky, Takam fought a very stupid fight
    but Chisora beat him so i have to rate him above Takam.

    Andy Ruiz jr. is the better fatman compared to Kownacki, he is a lot faster and has better ability but Kownacki
    has a bit more power.

    I looked at the Boxrec top 10 heavies yesterday & agreed with who they had (although not the order).

    Mine (noting that I only recognise the lineal champ):

    C - Tyson Fury

    1. Anthony Joshua (IBF, IBO, WBA & WBO champ)
    2. Deontay Wilder (WBC Champ)
    3. Olek Usyk (Undisputed Cruiser Champ)
    4. Alexander Povetkin
    5. Luis Ortiz
    6. Jarrell Miller
    7. Dillian Whyte
    8. Tony Bellew
    9. Dominic Breazeale
    10. Joseph Parker

    I don't think anyone else deserves being ranked ahead of those on my list.

    I'll rank Parker higher when he starts winning again.

    Good list i have almost the same names but in different order.

    Imo Hrgovic, Teslenko and Joyce would batter Manuel Charr already any day of the week.


    16. Hrgovic
    17. Teslenko
    18. Joyce
    19. Jennings
    20. Yoka/Dubois

    Those guys round up my top 20.
