Hi. There are a lot of opinions. I will try my TOP 10. 1) Usyk - the best skills, beated unified HW champion Joshua 2) Joshua - he tries to stay active, lost twice only to ATG Usyk, outclassed Ruiz in a rematch 3) Fury - Very good boxer with physical gifts, but beated unproven Wilder only and out of shape washed up Whyte. He has to beat his biggest rivals first 4) Hrgovic - no ducking, chasing titles, but I have to admit that last performance against Aussie guy was sleepy disappointment 5) Zhang - impressive in his age 6) Andy Ruiz jr. 7) Frank Sanchez 8) Joe Joyce 9) Wilder - too inactive, beated almost nobody.... Avoided Vitali Klitschko, Joshua, cherry picked Fury 10) Jalolov - will take over in 3 or 4 years and become a HW champion if TOP rank will do a good job (Jalo would dismantle Anderson right now) What is your pick?
That's not a bad list but Wilder still deserves to be top 5 imo. Jalolov hasn't really done anything to be ranked so high, h2h abilities aside.
1 Oleksander Usyk (Ukraine) 2 Tyson Fury (England) 3 Zhilei Zhang (China) 4 Deontay Wilder (USA) 5 Anthony Joshua (England) 6 Filip Hrgovic (Croatia) 7 Andy Ruiz (USA) 8 Joe Joyce (England) 9 Jared Anderson (USA) 10 Arslanbek Makhmudov (Russia)
Good list. Fury/Usyk are tops but the fat ass gypsy doesn’t seem interested in serious boxing. He’d rather fight a novice and pretend he cares. Fury should be stripped for taking that fight. I’m done complaining, boxing is what it is. Thank god for guys like Usyk, I wish there were more.
On the basis of a long title reign with a conspicuous lack of any real quality? And even moreso having not fought all year? Idk... I can't rate a guy as all that when his best win is an equally unproven fighter... Especially when he had a belt for more than long enough to make good fights - this is a guy that ran a mile from a unification even though an average champion (Joshua) was begging for it.... Who ran from Povetkin... Who even ran from Dillian Whyte. When you have a platform that enables you to prove yourself and duck all comers, that cowardice suggests you're not all that. Fraud is as fraud does.
Lightyears? You meaning beating Fury? If he beats Fury then I'd say AJ and Fury victories are enough to consider him for top 10 ever.
Look at the all time top 10 lists at heavyweight, see what they accomplished. Now look at Usyk's heavyweight record. So far he's decisioned Joshua twice,,,,,whoopee.!
1. Fury (although if he continues to be inactive he'd have to be removed from the list) 2. Usyk 3. Joshua 4. Wilder (I think he beats Joshua but has a worse resume and has only beat Helenius in the last 4 years) 5. Hrgovic 6. Zhang 7. Joyce 8. Ruiz Jr (again needs to start getting active or will be removed from the list) 9. Sanchez 10. Bakole Not sure why so many people have Jared Anderson on the list. I rank Jermaine Franklin ahead of him and if they fought next I'd back Franklin to win.
Yes, but if you add Fury to that list. Tyson Fury would be a better win than many of the wins other HW champs have gotten. What did the Klit's beat anyone of Fury's level? What about Lennox? Was his best win Holyfield?
