    Keep trying idiot. You should rank on both active resume AND h2h, in part because they are related. At this time 4 years and 10 months ago, there were about 7 different members of the top ten. If none of them had fought since then, do they deserve to be ranked if they come back and lose to the first half decent guy they fight? Of course not, only in Galvy's world, and only for Haye. Our main evidence for Hayes h2h right now is losing to a lhw.

    But Bellew beat Haye and it's not like Haye was dominant prior to the injury.

    1. Joshua, because at least he's beat somebody
    2.Wilder
    3. Parker
    4. Wlad , he'd better retire
    5.Pulev
    6. Haye, if he still wants it
    7. Fury, who knows?
    8.Ortiz
    9 Whyte
    10.Bellew, at least he has a win over a top ten guy.

    So I guess Parker struggled on purpose then?

    Could be finished, but a lot of fighters on anybody's list are interchangeable.

    No Parker just played it safe is why he struggled. He lacked confidance in making a fight out of it and knew he would win a close decision keeping distance to the limited mobility of Ruiz,who again at 6'2 heavy and not mobile will not go far against the bigger moving punchers.Hes to stationary and he has overatted power.

    I'm not saying Ruiz is top level but we cannot make excuses for Parker, he was very poor in that fight.

    Povetkin is a small pressure fighter , he would be a lot easier to handle for Anthony Joshua than Wlad was.

    He would be easily outboxed from the outside and he wouldn't try to exchange with AJ because he would lose
    the exchanges , AJ is too strong and his combination punching too dangerous , Povetkin would try to outbox
    him , which would be nearly impossible for him to do.

    I dont know what you are talking about?...putting Ruiz in a top ten bc Parker fought poorly doesnt make much sense .Does it? you have him as a top ten ..i dont. though its much more sense than a CHRISTIAN HAMMER....lmao

    Well that's a rap then the whole of the heavyweight scene may as well hang them up since Joshua is muhammad Ali with a punch....

    Despite his gutsy showing on sat AJ is still a flawed fighter.

    Tell me one fighter who hasn't flaws , i'm not saying that he is Muhammad Ali , he had a completely different fighting
    style , but he is definitely the best at the moment , it is what it is , i'm being objective in all of my posts ,
    everybody who is objective knows that he is the best at the moment and i have said it from the beginning that Anthony Joshua is something special.

    He's pretty borderline, but he is still undefeated and has the KO over Chagaev to his name. There are a lot worse names you could have in there.
