    I like you i'm not including Fury because he's retired apparently.

    1. Usyk
    2. Dubois
    3. Parker
    4. Zhang
    5. Kabayel
    6. Bakole
    7. Joshua
    8. Chisora
    9. Wardley
    10. Hrgovic

    Joshua goes down considerably because of the manner of his loss and he hasn't had a real notable win in years.

    I like your list. I'll have Hrgovic back on mine when he proves HE'S not retired.

    Yeah i know what you're saying i just don't think Hrgovic's loss to Dubois was that bad he was very competitive in the fight and was arguably winning until he was stopped on cuts and even that was a bit dubious no pun intended with the headbutts.

    Oleksandr Usyk

    Top 10 Contenders:

    1. Daniel Dubois
    2. Joseph Parker
    3. Tyson Fury
    4. Agit Kabayel
    5. Martin Bakole
    6. Zhilei Zhang
    7. Filip Hrgović
    8. Anthony Joshua
    9. Efe Ajagba
    10. Derek Chisora

    CHAMPION: Usyk

    1 - Parker
    2 - Dubois
    3 - Kabayel
    4 - Zhang
    5 - Bakole
    6 - Joshua
    7 - Hrgovic
    8 - Ajagba
    9 - Wardley
    10 - Chisora

    Some who might break into the top ten soon (but most of whom need to fight more often): Yallyev, Sirenko, Aliev, Vianello, Jalolov, Pero, Itauma, Torrez Jr., Huni, and Anderson, who shouldn't be written off.

    No matter who's list is used they all more or less have all the relevant heavyweights, and looking at that it's frightening how poor this division is. The fact that an ancient shot corpse like Chisora is a consensus top 10 is all the evidence you need for that statement to be true.

    With the injection of Saudi Arabian capital, fans were hoping boxing would follow Dana White's model; instead, we are getting Vince McMahon's
