    It's senseless arguing against it...

    A very large quantity of journeymen and the occasional gatekeeper doesn't come close to beating one of the most proven fighters in the division.

    Quantity doesn't make up for lack of quality.

    Even if Usyk loses to Fury, his HW resume will be far better than Wilder's... Because Usyk's beaten a world level HW fighter twice, Wilder hasn't beaten any.

    Because I agree with him to some extent, Wilder and Fury were overrated and to some extent so was AJ, that top 3 thing was irritating, they weren`t as good as what fans were saying despite AJ looking great in his last fight compared to Fury and Wilder.

    I think Usyk, AJ and Fury is a good top 3. The Ngannou thing is embarrassing, though, despite him being a monster. He's not a boxer, so if he isn't soundly beaten by Joshua and preferrably in a rematch with Fury it will always be a stain on this era.
