    1. Usyk
    2. Joshua
    3. Parker
    4. Fury
    5. Zhang
    6. Dubois
    7. Kabayel
    8. Hrgovic
    9. Sanchez
    10. Joyce

    Joyce at 10 is just because of his past, not quite sure where he is at now and the Chisora fight will reveal a lot.
    Mostly I like this list but I would put the other big baby, Anderson, on it above Hrgovic and Sanchez

      How is Joshua top 3 when he’s just beat helenius and some 0-1 mma scrub?


      How is this possible?

          Not so sure he's improving so much as he is fighting limited opposition. Miller without chemical enhancement is just a big fat guy with an attitude. Warn Hrgovic about rabbit punches and he's got a 1-2 and not much else. Even with Hrgovic's limited arsenal he was able to land the right hand almost at will. If he had better stamina he might well have beaten Dubois with that single punch, over and over and over again.

          Remove Usyk from the list and I'm thinking Joshua might well be number 1.
          And Dubois came into both those fights known as a "quitter". You may not think technically he has improved...but from a mental standpoint he has certainly taken on what type of mindset is needdd if you wish to become a champion. With an improved mindset and self belief comes greater commitment and a better work ethic. Time will tell...but it remains my belief that he is the sleeper of the division.

            Yeah, there's arguments to be made for some of those fighters but based on performance that top 3 is all set. I'm not even sure if Joyce deserves 10 but Anderson has done nothing to warrant a spot.

              He hasn't done anything of notice in the division though. Another overhyped 21st century American heavyweight.

              The only person he could be ranked above is Joyce imo.

                Usyk, Zhang, Fury .....

                Zhang is the boogeyman now. Who wants to fight 270lbs southpaw with skill ?
