    Ngannou was what 1 or 2 round away from becoming the WBC heavyweight and "lineal" heavyweight champion.

    Rankings are all esoteric **** but winning 40% of the rounds against the champion,dropping him and taking zero damage is enough to put you in the bottom end of the top 10 for me, especially if it's a weak top 10.
    McGregor arguably took 6 or 7 rounds off of Floyd. He wasn’t ranked.

        Rolly got sparked by Tank, he got ranked in all orgs including WBC, then he got a title shot in a different org.

        ”At The End of The Day “, you can keep on defending Sulaiman despite his crooked decisions.

          Why?
          He has a name, is very powerful, and can take punches. His boxing techniques aren't very refined, but such matches could determine whether he belongs to the hw boxing elite or not.

            I'm not defending suleiman I think he's a snake, and I don't like the fact that Ngannou waltzed into boxing and became a top heavyweight in his first fight, but that's Fury's fault.

            Top 10 in this division isn't saying a while lot, and it's entirely possible if Ngannou has another boxing match he gets sent tumbling down the ratings but as it stands I see him as top 10 based on his performance.

              If it wasn't for the fact that this is purely about money from the 'snake' it would actually make a little sense!

                It seems to me the evidence is pretty clear. Aside from Fury saying he had a strong training camp - he didn't. He embarrassed boxing and we now have to pay for it.

                  At this point we hope to see how those three will fare against other top opponents

                    He isn't? Ever seen someone 0-1 get ranked before?

                      The worst thing is that he (Ngannou) bumps other fighters down the ranking who have been putting blood, sweat, and tears into the sport. He was installed above Hrgovic and Joyce for example.
                      It may make dollars but it makes no sense.
