    I haven’t updated my heavyweight rankings in a while so thought I’d give the top 10 an update after the big fight last night…

    1. Fury
    2. Usyk
    3. Joshua
    4. Wilder
    5. Parker
    6. Whyte
    7. Ruiz
    8. Joyce
    9. Ortiz
    10. Sánchez

    Outside of that top 4 you can have those guys in any order really and with the likes of Whyte, Ruiz & Ortiz looking lacklustre lately there’s a big opportunity for some new guys to come through and take their spots at world level.

    Paint Dry Parker at number 5 :risas3:

    And Wilder is easily above Joshua. Joshua lost to Rice Pudding Jr and Wilder has only lost to Fury.

    Mmm Wilder got battered twice arguably three times. AJ rematched and beat Pudding easily.

    Joyce is better than Whyte and bigger with a far better chin.

    Fury
    Usyk
    Joshua
    Wilder

    Top 4 is clear. #5 is vacant, waiting to be claimed by the winner of Joyce/Parker.

    Against Fury...

    Haha.

    Joshua's win against Ruiz in Saudi is also a skidmark on his record. It proved him to be nowhere near Fury's level. It was a shocking performance against a man who was even more morbidly obese. It was a farce.

    Most of Joshua's chin was still being swept up at The Garden tbf.

    It's still against one opponent. Fury hasn't fought at least half of the top guys so if he does retire there is a question mark.
    It doesn't go off woulds ahoulda it goes off who you actually beat.
    Also you use a fallacy argument as you have to put Joshua down to make your point stick. Spin as much as you like it''s just the way it is.
    How is winning confortably in a rematch a skidmark exactly?
    That's a rhetorical question...

    I think Joyce is better than Whyte but he’s yet to mix it at the top level

    Joyce should be right up there

    A heavily underestimated man.

    1. Fury
    2. Usyk
    3. Wilder
    4. Joyce
    5. AJ

    As I said those guys are there for the taking at the top level but the guys coming through haven’t done enough yet to take those spots

    I believe Joyce can be up there at the top but the fact is he hasn’t fought anyone on that level yet. Gotta prove it first

    This top 10 will be short lived.
    Sooner or later, we will have to dispose of Fury's number one position because he is aparently on his way to hang up the gloves.
