Heavyweights: Who Will Still Have His "0" in a Year's Time?

These are the top ten undefeated heavyweights as ranked by BoxRec:

Oleksandr Usyk
Agit Kabayel
Artem Suslenkov
Nelson Hysa
Bakhodir Jalolov

Gurgen Hovhannisyan
Labinot Xhoxhaj
Vartan Arutyunyan
Umut Camkiran
Teremoana Teremoana

Usyk should retire undefeated.

Kabayel if he fights Hrgovic might lose, but may fight someone else and then remain inactive for another year.

Suslenkov and Arutyunyan are talented but too small to defeat some of the better large heavyweights.

Age will defeat Hysa sooner or later, or if he fights Kabayel.

Jalolov will likely remain inactive until they age him out, so still should be undefeated in a year or so.

I expect Teremoana to continue to fight soft opposition for at least another year.

Camkiran will be an "opponent" for a top heavyweight sooner of later, as will Xhoxhaj, and each will receive his first loss.

Hovhannisyan seems strong and durable. He would probably lose against the top heavyweights but may not be able to get a fight with one of them.

 

Yes. But sadly Teremoana is very protected by Hearn for some reason.

 

Yes, I think Kabayel would lose to several top heavyweights such as Hrgovic, he didn't look good against Kynba and was gifted an early stoppage by the referee.

I like Suslenkov, he's a very good fighter. But he's too small at 6'1" (2" shorter and has shorter arms than Usyk) for the modern heavyweight division. He should be fighting at cruiserweight.

 

True. With an honest referee, Dubois would have been disqualified for his multiple illegal head butts.

Usyk will very soon be 40-something himself. Yes, he'll easily beat anybody his own age.
