    Agreed. To put Ortiz ahead of Ruiz and Whyte is laughable in my opinion

    Divisional rankings aren’t won by the eye test. The best actually have to fight each other.

    Andy Ruiz gave AJ a beat down in their first fight and you rank Ortiz ahead of him. Why? Because he beat Jennings and David Allen and got stopped twice vs Wilder.

    No, most of these names lack the fundamentals to make much of an impact, there`s a huge gap between the top 5-6 fighters to the rest.

    No division is top to bottom with elite names. That list of names is as good as any.

    Lookin' like 115. No surprise as it was 112 for a few years before 115 took over. Several of those same guys.

    Just an opinion of course but, going by their last say 5 performances, Whyte sleeps Ortizn't with that left hook of his past the half way mark.

    Whyte was awful in his last performance and looked far slower and easy to hit than Ruiz was v Wilder.

    40+Foreman and cement footed Moorer were top guys during the great 90's era.
