Thread: Ranking the top heavyweights right now (Sept 2022)

So now that the dust has settled in two significant heavyweight fights... where do we rank the top heavyweights?

Granted, the Wilder-Helenius fight is still to come. But I'm going to assume that Wilder gets past the lumbering Helenius.

My own personal order is as follows:

1. Fury (when he's not retired)
2. Usyk
3. Wilder
4. Joshua
5. Ruiz

1. Fury
2. Usyk
3. Joshua
4. Wilder
5. Joyce/Parker winner (should be Joyce)

I like your list. But I think Wilder and Joshua should get into the ring once and for all and settle that minor detail of an argument.

Hell... even if no titles are on the line. They owe us.

Am posting this before I read the others in the thread

1) Fury
2) Usyk
3) Wilder
4) Joshua (very difficult to separate AJ and Wilder so based it on the fact Joshua has been beaten by two other top ten fighters)

5 onwards is Parker, White, Ruiz, Joyce etc and hard to split them as I see them as also rans who are not going to set the world alight (Ruiz not for a second time at least !).

Its a good job we have the other guys at the top.

1. Usyk
2.Joshua
3. Ruiz
4.Wilder
Note this is the Ruiz from the AJ 1 fight. The Ruiz from the AJ 2 fight isn’t in the picture.
5. Whyte
6. Joyce
7. Parker

FURY IS RETIRED! Yeah I’m talking shit, well, why should only Fury be able to do that?
If Fury signs for another fight , I will put him back In my rankings………….behind Usyk at #2.

I am glad that Fury has confirmed he will be fighting again. He should now concentrate on unifying the title and becoming undisputed heavyweight champion.

Allow AJ to get some wins under his belt and take him on then.

Offering to face AJ next seems like a weak and desperate move from Fury when he does not need to. He must know AJ will not accept it.
