Peter Fury's Top 10 HW List! Do you agree with it!?

1 Tyson Fury
2 Wlad
3 Wilder
4 Ortiz
5 Martin
6 Povetkin
7 Parker
8 Pulev
9 Hughie Fury
10 Ruiz Jr

Pov should be 4th at the very least.

Hughie? Parker? Fatuiz?
Na.

Pretty **** list when you have at least 3 names completely wrong.

Probably, though there is a logical justification for leaving Joshua out if you hold that a fighter needs to be proven against another top fighter to warrant a placement. Martin has a win over Glazkov (however flukey) while Joshua's best win remains Dillian Whyte.

That calls into question the Ruiz Jr placement though.

And Hughie. Do you think Peter is possibly a little bit biased there?

How can anyone have Martin in the top 10? He didn't even beat Glazkov.

Maybe he bases it partly on the old eyeball test. same reason I don't have Joshua in my top 10, he just looks very very average to me.

Hughie Fury is the best prospect in Britain, not Joshua.

Hughie in the top ten then to not have Povetkin ahead of Martin & Ortiz lmao just absolutely ******!
****** ***** DKSAB

Was thinking the exact same what in hells name did any of them do to earn top 10 spots I know some are telling me the HW division is bad but there are more relevant guys about than those three.

Pulev deserved a mention in that top ten regardless of his loss to Wlad way back then he is still more proven than any of Peters choices possibly Browne now too thanks to his win over Chagaev.

Agreed.

This guy just pulling names out his arse

Don't sleep on Chisora bro. Just because Fury put a beating on him doesn't make him a bum. An in shape, motivated Dereck is a tough night for most HWs.

Chisora has no business being on this list dude. Maybe in a British top 10, not a worldwide one.

Pov should be 4th at the very least.

Hughie? Parker? Fatuiz?
Na.

You couldn't name me 9 HW's better than Hughie Fury right now if I paid you a quadrillion dollars/pounds/euros/pesos.

And Hughie. Do you think Peter is possibly a little bit biased there?

If you read the article, the first thing he says is it has nothing to do with him being his son.

Same way peeps like me have GGG in our top 10 p4p. The eye test.

I don't see what Peter Fury sees in Martin right now, but I won't be a hypocrite and criticize a list with a name on it with a weak resume because like with GGG I will do the same if the eye test tells me so.

9? I'll name 10:

1 Tyson Fury
2 Wlad
3 Pov
4 Wilder
5 Pulev
6 Ortiz
7 Jennings
8 Martin
9 Browne
10 AJ
11 Chisora
12 Haye

I could really go on. That's not even a list in order, just the top names that popped into my head.

Hughie looks to be a good prospect but he hasn't achieved anything even close to most of the guys I listed and nor does he have the skill level...if he does, he certainly hasn't shown it against anyone with a pulse.

Now, where's my quadrillion pounds?
