    I saw American posters on here giving last night event major props. They were even suggesting how it should be done like that too over there, haven’t seen anyone with a hint of jealousy so far.

      I think US Heavyweight boxing is fine.
      Ortiz has done absolutely nothing to be classed as number 3. Whyte and Tyson Fury belong in the top 5.

        Whyte may be real or he may be smoke and mirrors. We won't know till he fights Ortiz or Miller or Wilder.

        Fury is the lineal but right now he can't beat anyone in the top 10.
        So no, he isn't top 5 right now, he has a long way to go judging by his last fight.

          ... Fury is the "lineal" ("Emeritus", at least)...
          ... Ortiz is "elite", but he signed with Haymon and "got a shot" to Wilder...

            So beating Parker means nothing but beating jarrell miller would prove something? Oh that must be because he is American right?

                Parker's stock took 2 major hits yesterday.

                Delboy sparks out a guy he went 12 with in 8.
                Ortiz sparks out a different guy he went 12 with in 2.

                Good victory for Dillian even with the close shave late.

                But not as big a win as one might think given the whole picture.

                  As a wilder fan

                  You really shouldn’t talk about how boxers perform considering wilder is the biggest protected Haymon bum out there who has
                  More semi pros on his resume than pros lol

                  Tell wilder to stop ducking and start fighting

                      4 - Bellew
                      5 - Tyson fury
                      8 - Whyte
                      19 - hughie fury

                      57 - dubios
                      163 - Allen
                      You're wrong about Gorman. Not been chin-checked yet, but he's young and has skills.
