    Where is Deontay Wilder?

    Nah in all seriousness i agree with that. I think some people might have an issue with the Ward / klit placements but.. other than that pretty solid.

        Nope. They just used HBO highlights.

        HBO would probably have Golovkin on the list.

            Great list. I agree for the most part. Hope some present fighters step-ups cause this era seems a bit soft. I know people love to sh@t on Floyd and Pac but these guys fought great champions after great champions.

                based solely on the last 17 years....they both belong in the top ten

                pretty good list.

                Wlad was the most dominant heavyweight champion of the last 30 years....dominated his era

                Ward hasnt lost amatuer or pro since the 90s, one of the few to win titles at '68 and '75 in history

                both deserve it in my view, who could legitimately place them?

                  Nah they both thoroughly deserve to be in there.. i just think certain people who prefer aesthetics over achievement may feel ward should be switched with klit or some would keep it as is with Ward 5th and klit 4th respectively.

                    in the comments some thought Vitali should get in, he was more "beloved" but Wlad was the more accomplished champion

                    Its some people who'd leave them both off for matter of preference.

                    I think the list is pretty darn go......these types of list of difficult to compose.
