Heavyweight scene on the rising

What´s so exciting about being undefeated?
Wilder has one good win under his belt. Same goes for Ortiz.
Joshua beat a domestic level rival and Martin has not beaten one contender of any sorts.

 

It's good to see some movement at HW after all these years of stale-mate of the Klitschko era. Here are my thoughts about the title-holders / challengers that you listed:

-Tyson Fury has a great win over Klitschko, but honestly I don't believe he's the future of the division,

-Klitschko is at the end of his career, he'll retire soon, even if he should win the rematch against Fury,

-Wilder seems to have the tools to be the next great HW champ, but he still remains untested against top opposition. His best win is against Stiverne... let's hope the Povetkin fight comes of, that will be a true test,

-Ortiz has great potential but he is already 36 years old. Still, I'd give him a shot against any of the other HWs named here,

-Joshua might be the future or not, nobody knows,

-David Haye is finished, his comeback is all about earning another paycheck, he's never been good for the HW division and should disappear rather sooner than later,

-Charles Martin was lucky as hell to get that title, he's a paper-champ, nobody will talk about this guy in 2 years...

-Stiverne is 37 years old, maybe one of the beltholders will pick him for an easy title-defense, but he's certainly not the future of the division,

-Lucas Browne actually has the best win of the bunch (against James Toney), but he is so limited... maybe he has enough to grab the WBA belt from Chagaev, but not much more.

I think Joseph Parker deserves a mention as a top prospect.

 

Looking good.

 

Why do people always leave that guy out? :conf
