Top 5 updated heavyweight contenders

I really want to see Jalolov step up too, not to world level but at least someone who's a proven quantity and not complete unknown journeymen who are just basically walking punch bags for him.

If he doesn't step up his level this year he'll soon just end up stagnating and end up going nowhere. He's had the same number of fights as Yoka and Yoka for all his faults has fought far superior opposition. Throw him in with guys like Kuzmin, Kossobutskiy, Rice or even Franklin.

 

Joshua (only Fury/now doubtful and Usyk beat him)
Hrgovic (probably the best who hasn't been a champion yet)
Zhang (gonna be hard to beat decisively)
Joyce (lost twice to stylistic foil but still beats majority of top 10)
Parker (single best win of the 5, rejuvenated)

I see a lot of people have Dubois but not Joyce which makes no sense to me. Joyce dominated him and Dubois still doesn't have a win over a top 10 person and still looks precarious. Dubois not beating any of these men.

 

1. Zhang
2. Hrgovic
3. Dubois
4. Bakole
5. Kabayel

Honourable mentions: Sanchez, Joyce, Andersen
