Who will rule the Heavyweight division in 3 years time

Out of the current crop of heavyweights we're finally getting talent worth watching, assuming Klitchko retires win or loss against Fury, who will emerge on top in the next few years?

List them them based on ability/skill and the likelyhood for being crowned the top dog in the division

1. Tyson Fury - 27, proven to be skillful, already defeated a long time champion
2. Deontay Wilder - 30, love him or hate him Wilder is a tough dude with cement blocks in his fists
3. David Haye - 35, not active enough but definitely got speed and power to KO any of the guys on the list
4. Anthony Joshua 26, absolute beast with power in both hands, although a bit predictable
5. Joseph Parker 24, very good mover, jabber ,puncher, young and still getting better
6. King Kong Ortiz 37, old but very good Cuban fighter with power in both hands
7. Alexander Povetkin 36, old and undersized but definitely dangerous for any one on the list

As crazy as he is, Tyson Fury came out of nowhere with his win against Klitchko and proven that he can box well and be disciplined when push comes to shove. To me is definitely emerging as the top guy, if he can box the way he boxed against Klitchko he could beat anyone on the list and be the absolute top dog.

Deontay Wilder is a big dude, rangy with huge power and always comes in shape, he is second on the list because he is the only guy who can really trouble Fury with his combination of range and power. I would favor Wilder against everyone else on the list, including Joshua who is a bit robotic and would get sparked by Wilder if they fought now.

David Haye is small but he is very quick and proven to be an excellent finisher when he hurts his opponent. Although he came up short against Klitchko, its more a testement of how good Klitchko is rather than how bad Haye is. That is why Haye is still on the list being quick, fighting low he can KO almost anyone.

Anthony Joshua is a beast and fights like he is the boss in the ring, but we havent seen him against a proven opponent who could take advantage of his predictable movement. Fury and Wilder would definitely beat him getting through with straight shots and Haye would trouble him with his quickness. I would even give Povetkin a decent chance against him, Joshua leaves himself open in close quarters where Povetkin can do some serious damage like he did to Takam and Perez.

Joseph Parker is very good fighter but he is yet to show what he is capable of. I would like to see him fight someone like Jennings or Glazkov to see what he can do. I put him on #5 as he is still very young and showing alot of promise. He is a bit undersized though for his style of fighting.

Ortiz and Povetkin last two on the list, both are getting old and who knows how far they can go. If Ortiz can land a big fight against Joshua this year he could win with his power. But i got a feeling none of the guys will fight him and just let him get old. Same with Povetkin, if he is not suspended for meldonium then maybe we can see him against a top guy before he becomes too old and irrelevant.

 

he is not a heavyweight

 

doubt that, the heavyweights are big boys and this guy looks pretty filled up at 200
