        Chisora should have been ranked when they fought and was by TRBR which many consider a much more credible source.

        But yeah. I don't see anyone trying to discuss who has the better resume. One is a 40 year old champion for 10 years with 20 years in the sport. The other just
        Coming into his prime with a mere 24 fights or so.

          TRBR generally have the best rankings I would say.

            In my opinion if you don't believe that Ward is one of the best fighters in the world then its you that is actually lacking any kind of credibility.

              I'd say Chris Byrd was Wlad's best win, not Haye.

                I said it because it was Fury himself that was claiming Wlad's resume wasn't much.

                As far as Chisora is concerned he lost four out of five fights. He then fought five fights in a row against rather lame opponents and then he did absolutely nothing but follow Fury around the ring the second time they fought.

                I am certainly no expert but that doesn't sound like the resume of a top ten fighter. I would also bet good money that after the second loss to Fury TRBR also realized the Chisora wasn't that good and he exited their top ten.

                I also want you do me a favor. Would you pass along the information to Kafkod that TRBR has Ward listed as the Super Middleweight Champion. But please be gentle when you tell him because he just may have an aneurysm when he finds out.

                    The ring magazine have Brook at #10 and Golovkin at #4. Take it with a grain of salt

                      Fury should examine his own resume, and state which are his signature wins? If beating Cunningham on the road, who had already lost 5 times when they met is his claim to fame that's not so impressive. Fury is entertaining outside the ring, inside the ring , he has not neaten anyone that stands out to me.
