    Wilder-Fury II still intrigues me because I want to know what adjustments will be made by both guys.

    Joshua-Whyte, not as much. Much less interest, in fact.

    I'd much prefer Joshua-Ortiz. It's a riskier fight for Joshua.

        My ratings.
        1. Tyson Fury
        2. Deontay Wilder
        3. Luis Ortiz
        4. Anthony Joshua


        5. Jarell Miller
        6. Kubrat Pulev
        7. Alexander Povetkin
        8. Adam Kownacki
        9. Dillian Whyte
        10. Joseph Parker or Dereck Chisora

        There's other fighters coming through or early in their careers who could maybe beat the lower guys on that list, but as things stand, that looks about right to me. I think the top 4 are a level above the rest.

            Looking at the order you have listed that seems to me that you're probably from the UK (I am too) but that you have bought into the sky sports narrative a bit too much. Sky sports boxing are brilliant at promoting fights and selling certain fighters as maybe a level above what they are to the public.

            You have AJ at #1 which whilst I don't agree, I can understand. Then at 2,4,5 and 9. You have opponents who AJ beat. And to me you have them all at least 3-4 or 5 places too high. Then you have Whyte at #2, which is laughable to be honest. Then you have the only man to best Whyte at #1. And Parker, Whyte's best win at #4. Parker is definitely not top 4 at all.

              There shouldn’t be a semi final

              Joshua vs Fury is the best and most significant fight to be made, as they are the two best Heavyweights

              If anything, Wilder should face Whyte, with the winner earning a shot at the Joshua/Fury winner

                It’s liter been a year since before the AJ / Parker
                Wilder / Ortiz fights where fans said yeah this is going to be like a semi-final then the winners can fight

                Then the same thing was said when it was Povetkin / AJ. And Wilder /Fury

                Now it’s the same thing with this and it’ll be over a year and half since this was brought up with no final being set up between the winners and it’ll probably keep going on like this

                which is exactly what AJs team want keep on going after the new #4 HW after the other one loses , With fans being like maybe this time the winners actually fight

                At this point it’s getting old

                  No its just my honest opinion, i believe the better quality of opponents are the ones AJ has fought. I think Wilder and Ortiz are vastly overrated and if they fought any of the opponents above them they would lose. Look how a rusty Fury dealt with Wilder, people were shocked but it was obvious due to a clear gulf in ability.

                  As for Parker, he has an iron chin and Wilder certainly isn't outboxing any top opponent if he can't knock them out.

                  I actually happen to find your list laughable. Whyte beats everyone on your list apart from AJ and possibly Fury would have a decent chance.

                    That's why you work hard to become the #1 seed. So you get the easier match up in the opening round.

                      Winners to face off

                      As long as we get that final fight between the winners this is actually good for the division
                      You are an absolute chithouse and you purposely stole my earlier thread idea. You're a coward. Don't lie, I saw you viewing my thread earlier. For some reason your dumb ass decided to recreate my thread but miss out the mandatories. Get your own thread ideas in future you bender.
