Question: How are the rankings affected by Oleksandr Usyk's UD 12 win over Anthony Joshua?
My vote: Usyk to #1, Joshua to #3.
My vote is based on the fact that this was a better performance than any of Fury's performances and it's very recent, Fury is inactive for a lot of time and is an enigma, however, he can regain his spot soon.

if wilder beats fury, do we gotta put it at 1.deonttay 2.usyk 3. fury
I wouldn't put Wilder at #1. Usyk would make him look silly anyway, and Wilder still has the losses to Fury. Hope it doesn't happen though, I don't want Fury vs Wilder 4.

But with that not contracted it could set up wilder vs usyk for all the belts. AJ vs fury for zero belts.... what a turn of events that would be.

My guess is that we will never get Fury-AJ, just like we never got AJ-Wilder.

Depends how he wins.
If it's by fluke injury ala Martin v Glazkov, I'd likely just move Fury down to #4.
If it's closer to Wilder v Ortiz 2, I'd move Wilder up to #2.
If it's like Wilder v Ortiz 1 or better (minus Dr interference) I'd move Wilder to #1.

would be funny if after almost 2 years of being looked at as a total laughingstock, wilder suddenly became #1 and fury/aj were the losers. sh!t can change quick

Cleaned out CW (beat three guys that have campaigned at HW: Gassiev, Briedis, and Hunter). He has a win over Chisora and Joshua. Fury beat Wilder, but he hasn't done anything recent yet. It also didn't take Usyk 2 fights to clearly beat his rival. I know I had Fury beating Wilder clear the first time, but I do know some people did score it a draw.
