    This year, we've seen Usyk-Joshua II, Fury-Whyte, Bakole-Yoka, Joyce-Parker, Ruiz-Ortiz, Wilder-Helenius, and Hrgovic-Zhang...it has not been a bad year at all.

    Obviously, Usyk and Fury are 1 and 2, depending on how you want to put them. All things considered, who do you have as #3?

    Please take the poll.

    I believe most of the people here will vote Joyce or Wilder.



    I still think AJ has a good chance of beating anybody, not name Usyk.

    Usyk has two better wins in 4 fights at HW than The Dosser has in 45

    Let that sink in

    And even more embarrassing

    Chisora would be at worst The Dosser's third best win

    Is Stiverne better than Chisora?

    Who he beat?

    His best win Arreola who lost to LHW Adamek and his second best is a 40 y/o way past it Ray Austin who was boxing his head off until his old man lungs gave out on him and he got clipped

    Just think about that for a second. A 40 y/o way past prime Ray Austin is the second best win of The Dosser's second best win

    Chisora beat Pulev, Takam, was robbed against J-Park, Whyte, Helenius, also beat Szpilka, Kvin Johnson, Scuba Scott, David Price, Danny Williams

    So Chisora is clearly better than Stiverne so he would be The Dosser's second best win assuming The Dosser beat him that is

    The Dosser's CV is full of Chazz Witherspoons

    Helenius is 3rd, to be able to sell that punch takes real skill.

    Impossible to beat someone who won't fight you. Ask Povetkin, he would have decapitated Wilder years ago had wilder had a pair. He fought Stiverne and Fury who had failed a drug test

    Agreed. Hence why neither Fury or Wilder have beaten Joshua.

    He won't get in the ring with them.

    The only reason Usyk got the chance is because he was mandatory.

    Based on resume it has to be Joshua.

    Sorry but I'm not impressed with Wilder's KO over Helenius who only got an eliminator shot because he slapped around fat boy kownacki.

    It's 50/50 fight, but Joshua's victories are more impressive.

    I don't see why KOing someone like Helenius should move wilder up to #3
