Who ever wins Wilder/Ortiz Is the number one HW in the world cause they would have the best win by far
AJ is #1. Whyte (#10), Breazeale (#8), Martin (#13), W. Klitschko, Takam and probably Parker (#7). Winner of Ortiz/Wilder is well deserved #2.
No. Wlad achieved more than Wilder and Ortiz ever will combined and turned out one of his best career performances last April. Faded as he was, his name on Joshua's resume makes Joshua #1 and that will only be consolidated further if Joshua unifies against Parker. Winner of Wilder/Ortiz becomes De facto #2, as it will be a better singular win than anything recently recorded by Parker or Povetkin.
