    Your top 5 heavyweights right now

    1. Usyk
    2. Fury
    3. Parker
    4. Joshua
    5. Hrgovic

    I know Joshua already beat Parker, but I must see him beating somebody more relevant than Ngannou, Wallin or Helenius, because we are talking about where should be the guys ranked right now.

    Parker is N.3. for me, because he beat Wilder and Zhang in his last two fights and this is not debatable.

    Kabayel has to be knocking on the door. Back to back incredible performances. We have a new body snatcher in the division that will be avoided.

      Seriously where are people getting this Hrgovic bollocks from. Come on. Then again, I can't think of who else goes anywhere near that top 4 so maybe he can just be there by default, which doesn't really say much does it.

      Look at the Boxrec HW rankings. Absolute dog**** below. Somehow Joyce is still top 10. Kabayel has somehow made it up to number 3 but needs to back it up now before he can be considered a real contender.

        This is boxing. So what if Joshua can destroy two fringe guys that gave Fury trouble?

        I still think even this version Fury is better than Joshua.

          Usyk
          Joshua
          Fury
          Parker
          Wilder/Zhang/Hrgovic

          #2-4, you can mix around a bit and make an argument for whatever. #5 becomes a bit of a toss-up and there are guys just outside of the top five list that likely beat the trio I placed in a tie for #5.

            Hard to gauge personally-speaking because outside of Usyk, the division is very shaky. If we're going by fighters strictly from a top ten-ranked perspective, I'll say:

            1. Usyk
            2. Parker
            3. Zhang
            4. Kabayel
            5. Fury

            ...and this list is very subjective; mostly from a fan-friendly, "styles make fights" sort of manner. Who is objectively better is up for debate.

              Usyk
              Joshua
              Hrgovic
              Fury
              Parker

              Is the correct order

              Fury can’t be number 2 his top wins are still Wilder and Whyte as title defenses he had and has not fought legit competition consistently for someone who’s had a head start over everyone.

                My mind is blown that people are putting Joshua above Fury.

                I have never been more certain, especially judging from last night, that Fury absolutely batters him. Like, Crawford style demolish. My biggest issue with Joshua is that he and Hearn often dine on perception and he lacks perseverance. By the latter stages of the first fight Joshua was merely trying to survive, other than the 9th, Fury showed a lot more willingness to actually engage and win.

                People WANT to give Fury no credit because he is a pillock. Beating a bunch of who your opponent struggled with already tells me, deep down, you kinda know you're the inferior product. If Joshua took out say, Wilder in similar fashion I would be more convinced but getting in there wirh Ngannou just after the nonsense fight he had with Fury told me that I a still of the belief that Joshua and Hearn don't genuinely believe they can take out Fury.

                  That’s because your a Fury guy, the fact is if Joshua defeated him and knocked him out cold you’d still say he has to do it twice to prove he’s better.


                  How does last nights fight tell you Fury batters A.J ? He did far worse and now that’s the third opponent he looked worse against that Joshua fought ?


                  Make it make sense , that’s a lot to ask on here and very little sense is expected with most Fury fans . Lol
