    Wilder and Anthony Joshua got into boxing around the age of 19. AJ turned pro at 24 yrs old. In most divisions of boxing, that just doesn't work. AJ has demonstrated improvement in his last fight but before that they all said he's a robot who can't box. We know wilder can't box. So the quality of the actual fights aren't great. Then you have Tyson Fury and Ruiz who don't even live the best lifestyle.

    In most divisions, the elite boxers are guys who started boxing at an early age and posses a skillset you just won't see in the higher divisions. Their conditioning is insane. When was the last time there was a HW version of Crawford, manny pacquaio, loma? Tyson Fury doesnt even come close.

    Over the last 15 yrs, it was the light welterweight to middleweight divisions that were by far my fav. You won't get that quality of boxing in the HW divisions.

        There's no division that stands out right now.
        Used to be the welterweight, but the fighters are locked up
        in their own little island cherrypicking their fights.
        They fight each other once in a while, but mostly fight worthless opponents.

          I wonder why Canelo makes so much more money than Wilder, Fury and AJ ???????? Mayweather made more money boxing than any heavyweight in history. I guess the rest of the world doesn't agree with your heavyweights are the best fighters BS.

            Prime Mike Tyson's skills were comparable to any at a lighter weight. Holyfield, Lewis too as well. Doubt anyone could criticize them for conditioning either.

            Usyk could be the next great HW with skillset and conditioning.
