    Itauma is being propelled way above his station here, no idea how he cracks the top 10 of any of these rankings.

    ItuamaX2 is a joke
    No rating is a joke
    Okolie is a joke
    Fury is a joke since he is officially retired.

    The WBAs almost look like an alternate universe.

    Fury and Joshua have no business being in any Organisations top ten due to inactivity and Itauma is being far too over rated to be ranked so highly,yes he’s a great talent but who has he beat at this point in his career to be ranked so highly ? All the Organisations should start 1 Parker 2 Kabayel imho because these are the two fighters most deserving for a shot at Usyk .

    Those rankings just get more painful to look at.

    F*** me these sanctioning bodies are in a race to crown Itauma as their interim champion.

    Now let there be no mistaking the extraordinary privilege given to certain fighters based in the UK.
    Has this ever been seen, beating a shot contender and suddenly topping lists.

    Man of the people, I drive a second hand car and just put the garbage out, Tyson Fury has more pressing concerns than his ranking

    Everyone has already covered most points re Itauma, Fury etc.

    But how is Jalolov in top 10 for two orgs? He has yet to fight a live body, and isn't especially active.
