    It's one of my favourite things when someone asks for your top 10, therefore your opinion, and they proceed to tell you why your opinion is wrong.

    A very difficult one to put in order but roughly something like this

    1. Fury
    2. Joyce
    3. Joshua
    4. Whyte
    5. Dubois
    6. Chisora
    7. Hughie
    8. Wardley
    9. Clarke
    10. Fisher

    I'm only putting the bottom 3 ahead of Gorman because of the decline of the man and all of the bottom 4 are yet to be as exposed as much he has been. It doesn't look good for him, he's a million miles away from being anything like the fighter he was touted to be.

    You're allowed to disagree Jimbob Squarepants, of course you are, but it's when you tell someone they're straight out wrong after asking what their opinion is. A top 10 is clearly subjective so unless someone puts Dave Allen in, there's no right or wrong answer.

    Unless Audley Harrison is at number 1 then they are all wrong answers.

    Chisora is shot but he would still probably beat Dubois right now. Watch Dubois against Lerena for example.
    I forgot about Hughie Fury. I didn't put Hughie Fury or Dave Allen in my rankings because they have been very inactive. Surprised you put Fisher ahead of Dacres and Adeleye though.

    Would would I listen to you?


    Wardley might beat him, but he has not fought at level yet that I'm convinced

    I don't think Fisher is that great but I think he'll have a better career than ether of those two, Adeleye got an absolute gift against Sokolowskim, he's just a big muscular lump that will get flattened and Dacres has been messing around for 10 rounds with Bracamonte, if you're a heavyweight with 2 stoppages in your first 6 fights I don't think you're going places I'm afraid.

    Fair comment mate but on ly thing id say is whatever we think of Gorman he is better than any of those 3 guys opponents. Id actually expect one of them to box him very soon.
    The guy who boxed Adelaye last night was definitely not as good and retired under dodgy circumstances. Couldn't see Gorman doing that. Of course there might be something we are not privy to as mere spectators.

    Yep looks like Dacres is lacking in the power department but hes a tall clever lad who will go so far in. boxing. Possibly British championship level which is lofty in this day and age.
    Did you see Adelaye last night? I think we know he has a certain amount of power hence your post and his boxing looked to have improved a bit but hes not the boxer he obviously thinks he is. Of that im pretty sure. Ion half expecting Fishers opponent tonight to not be a lot inferior to David's opponent last night. ie Fisher with all his lack of background might soon catch h him up.

    Even Babic would smash Gorman to bits inside of 4 rounds. He's in far worse shape than any serious HW has any right to be, hence why he is going nowhere. Christ! Even Adeleye beats him and Adeleye will be very lucky to get a British title.
