    Andre Ward or Oleksandr Usyk who ranks higher?

    Both Olympic champions and unified champions at 2 separate weight classes, Usyk was also undisputed in one and both held 1 lineal title each.

    Good question.

    Probably give the edge to Ward.

      Yeah it’s very close either way, I can’t really decide tbh.

        You mean right now? I’d say Ward. But depending on how Usyk’s career finishes out, that could definitely change.

          Yeah as of now. I don’t think there’s much between their records now, Ward 31-0, 9-0 in title fights, Usyk 19-0, 8-0 in title fights.

            Ill go with Usyk because he was undisputed champ at cruiserweight and now is 3 belt unified heavyweight champ.

              Does Usyk have a fight he got knocked down in and clearly lost, but somehow the judges gave him the win? No? Then Usyk.

                Usyk. No controversial victories. Undisputed champion. Went higher up in weight. Willingness to fight in hostile territory unlike Ward who was the only super six participant to not.

                  Ward but Usyk could potentially surpass him if he somehow beats Fury.

                    Very good question. Almost neck and neck now but maybe Usyk gets the edge because no way Ward won the first Kovalev fight. There is some controversy about Usyk Bredis though, but I haven’t watched it tbh.

                    I would say 50/50.
