    1. Anthony Joshua
    2. Deontay Wilder
    3. Alexander Povetkin
    4. Luis Ortiz
    5. Dillian Whyte - Beating Parker has proven Whyte to me as a top 5 heavyweight
    6. Joseph Parker - Parker slipping down after 2 back to back losses
    7. Tyson Fury - Fury looked better verses Pianeta but still some way off from being at his best
    8. Pulev - Inactivity and looking poor vs Johnson see's Pulev slip down for me, his time in the top 10 is numbered, wouldn't shock me if Hughie beats him convincingly.
    9. Breazeale
    10. Miller

    Its a very thin top ten after the 5 best,

    AJ, Wilder, and Povetkin belong. Whyte belongs, and could upset anyone. Ortiz? Maybe

    Parker doesn't have the fire needed for boxing
    Miller is fat, and pulled out of the Pulev fight
    Pulev is old
    Brazaele does not belong!
    Chisora back in the top ten, shows how little the depth is.

    The new wave of talented heavyweights can't arrive soon enough.

    How are people still putting Ortiz about Whyte when he hasn't beaten anyone in the top 10?

    Ortiz's best win, was on gear against Jennings who just got dropped by journeyman Dimitrenko.


    Whyte has beaten two of the current top 10.


    I don't care if you 'don't rate' Whyte, but he's above Ortiz.

    I 'don't rate' Wilder, but still have the decency to place him 2nd.

    It’s pretty simple. He looked very worthy of his ranking in a losing effort to Wilder and Whyte looked like dog**** against Parker and Chisora. I’m not willing to suspend everything I know about boxing because Whyte got a W while looking like a drunk who was on the verge of passing out against a light hitting opponent.

    Top 3 wins Whyte: Parker, Chisora, Helenius

    Top 3 wins Ortiz: Jennings, Thompson, Scott

    Both losing to the #1 and #2 of the division while Ortiz looking MUCH better than Whyte did.

    Is there a huge difference between them in terms of their resume?

    NO.

    Is there a huge difference between them in terms of how they looked in their fights?

    YES.

    Ortiz barely lost a round of boxing in his whole career while Whyte was nearly knocked out by Parker, Whyte lost to CHisora and Whyte was running away from Dave Allen for 10 rounds.

    Dillian Whyte is a loudmouth and hype job. Not even close to the Top 5.

    Reasonable post. The only ones that matter are Fury, Wilder, Joshua and Ortiz, cant toss Povetkin just yet he has one last shot, Jennings fought Wlad and Ortiz when they were younger, if Whyte fought Wlad and Ortiz then or anytime for that matter you can add to big ko losses on his record. I rate Jennings higher then Whyte. Nice win over Dimitrinko for Jennings. Big Baby gotta step it up. Wilder has the most talent.

    Dillian Whyte is the boxing equivalent of a professional wrestler who gets pinned while the ref is distracted and ends up winning the match by getting up at 9 during a double knockout.

    You chat so much crap that you're either a hater or a troll.

    Ortiz is a good fighter, but Thompson and Scott are shite. I rate Chisora and Parker Higher and they both beat Takam who would have gone the distance with AJ.

    Secondly, Whyte has had more fights than Ortiz in the last period, and actually achieved more than Ortiz in his whole career. Besides, the boxing rankins do all the talking so SORRY it doesnt meet your boxing standards but luckily you aint an official who organises rankings.

    And Whyte looked great against Parker and was the first man in this history of mankind to drop parker with a legit knock down, so sorry if that's garbage to you but you clearly have a shrine for Ortiz in your closet.

    P.S you're top ten list is trash too... Andy Ruiz JR seriously? Are you his cousin or something?

    And Jarell Miller above parker? Do you even follow boxing? Please explain how Jarell made the list, I'd like a nice laugh on my Monday evening before bed.

    So you don't approve of his boxing skill, isn't that cute.

    Since he beat Parker.. a guy with 15 years more experience than him on three score cards. Damn son...

    That 15 years of sexy boxing prowess sure didn't help Parker win the fight.

    And so Whyte continues to win, improve make that money, and some random poster called NoNeck on the internet is not happy about that LOOOOOOL 2 funny
