yes, based on the WBO rules he can fight for the title immediately. That doesn't make him one of the 5 best HWT's in the world.

As we have discussed, I think Usyk beats all the Hwt's if he can handle their power. My point is to rank him top 5 before he has actually fought at HWT is absurd.

Wilder, AJ and Whyte could all flatten Usyk if they caught him clean. But they could all flatten each other too, so ...?

Eddie is losing his mind just a little bit more each day. One day he'll wake up and wonder why he spends so much time promoting women's boxing because NOBODY GIVES A F**K ABOUT IT, EDDIE! Fact is, Dillian Whyte is borderline garbage. In the 70s you'd never have heard of him; in the 80s he'd have got battered by the top 10 at any point and even in the 90s most cnts would have sparked him out. If he's top 5, well that is brutally indicative of the current state of the HW division outside the top 3 boys.

Eddie does the right thing by promoting female boxing. He is a pioneer and sees a massive market potential. You may not give a %$%$# about it now, but give it some time and you or somebody next to you will. Nobody gave a %$%%$% about female UFC until Rhonda came on board and Dana White promoted her like crazy. It paid off. MMA is associated with UFC, not Bellator or whatever, not in the least because of Rhonda. The same will be here.

For god sake, women are 50% of the world population, how can anyone ignore a market of that size? You need to be an idiot not to see the potential there + giving a sharp rise of feminism and equality, women's combat sports will only be growing. But it takes a visionary to recognize this. Hearn is one of those visionaries and he will buy many Bentleys for himself because of it, while you will be sitting in your mummy's basement complaining about how nobody gives a $#$# about women's boxing.

This is ******ed. Wilder isn't below whyte and while I like Usyk it is beyond ******ed to rank him as a top 5 HWT when he hasn't fought a HWT fight yet.

Lol - I had a good laugh about Whyte. The guy must be the biggest hype job since Audley Harrison.

Eddie is a deluded fool.

Where is Ortiz? He is top 5 for sure.

Based on what? He is definitely behind Whyte. Whyte has beaten two former world champions and gone life and death with the #1 guy.
Ortiz has struggled against Christian Lol Hammer and lost to a poor paper WBC 'champion'.
Nope, take the hype away and the truth is there.
I would not have Fury above Whyte and would kick Usyk out for Joyce or Miller.

Dillian Whyte r u nuts? Seriously , him and Usyk shouldnt be rank and Fury boxed Wildier to a draw and ducked the rematch.

Whyte has beaten 2 former champions. Agree re Usyk, should not be recognized. Whyte is absolutely better than Wilder as an.opinion, but should not be officially ranked ahead of him.

Eddie having Whyte over Wilder was a combo of homerism and wanting to get ppl talking lol

Whyte is good but I think Wilder would catch him first
