beating pulev would be a career best win for 99 percent of heavys, especially if we just look at what theyve done lately
not at 40 tho, i mean when Danny Williams beat tyson didnt make him a world beater, i respect pulev but i thought it was could of gone either way i thought won tho i dont take any thing from dels win if you get me, just it was an entertaing fight but no meaing on the rankings. iam harsh sometimes tho i know
should we kick luis ortiz out completely because he's 42-43 then?
god he would love u mags more like 52. its not the age persay but come on pulev is dinning out at 40 he aint waiting for his grandad body at 50 to he starts really letting go, you know what i mean mags

chisora 1-3 in last 4.........but tbf all 4 of those were against guys we ranked. he won one of those and could've gotten the decision in parker 1 too. ortiz hasnt beat a fighter we've rated in years and years. sanchez and wallin have never done it. helenius has the kownacki wins, but prior was ko'd by timid gerald washington of all people
we cant just say 1-3 without context. would 4-0 vs all bums be superior?
for me he can go as high as #9, replacing ortiz.......but i think just switching him with pulev works here

Chisora to 8
Pulev to 15
In the last 4 years Chisora has better wins than both Joyce, Ortiz, and Bakole. He has losses, but they were all competitive and came against fighters currently in the top 6. Ortiz also has losses, and looked pretty terrible against Martin. Joyce doesn't have any losses but has yet to fight a top 15 opponent.
Many consider Pulev could have been given the fight against Chisora. Also he has been in fairly decent form even after a spirited loss to Joshua, so I think he warrants being on the edge of top 15.
dont agree joyce win against dd was better than all of the above i would have a good dd over everyone of then, delboy lost to Agit Kabayel convincingly i dont want to run del boy down he is tough brawler but he is gate keeper to the top 10 at best 14 at most pulev is sliding out 12
Okay.
Well, I strongly disagree with your over estimation of a green prospect fighting for the British title. Dubois isn't in the top 15 for a reason.
I also watched the Kabayel fight. Chisora was clearly there to be a resume padder and understood his role wasn't to actually win that fight. Commentary made mention that he was likely there as a favour to friends bank rolling the event. There was something very off about the whole thing, it even looked like Chisora was coaching Kabayel at points in ring. I think it's fair to say that fight 5 years ago was a low point in his career.

Takam was still seen as a dangerous opponent when Chisora stopped him (albeit against the run of play). He also brutally stopped Spilzka in a round who caused Wilder all sorts of problems.

what is so good about the other fighters that del shouldn't be there? what have they accomplished?

The trouble is, you are opening up a can of worms with that.
From what I recall, Szpilka was actually the highest ranked win on Bryant Jennings' record, slightly higher than Perez (which itself was a controversial result).
Ortiz' ranking has always been very reliant on his own win over Jennings who was coming off a loss. Jennings is also the highest ranked opponent Joyce has defeated.
We can pick apart everything to an extent.
I'm sure our divergent opinions will average out.

It's tough to make any call on this because both guys are past it as far as setting the world alight, and it was so darn close it could have gone either way.
Same vibe with Martan Vs Ortiz- a fun fight of no real impact on the division.

Also Chisora has already told us that he’s only got ‘a few more left’.
I don’t get why’s he even paying sanc fees for regional ORG belts.
He’s not gonna challenge for a world title. He should savour his purse.. maybe then he can afford his caviar.

Pulev stays at 11
Chisora to 8 (never thought I'd be saying that in 2022)
Was a close fight and both were close to dropping out of our rankings altogether but who has Wallin beat that puts him above Pulev?
Also, despite being old, Pulev is a better scalp than anyone 8th or below has.
Activity from top 25 guys can change this list instantly if any of them were bothered. Are they all waiting for the belts to sort themselves out so they can try and get themselves an eliminator when they know it's worth taking a risk?

I’m not Chisora or Ortiz fan boy.
But saying Del did well against Usyk.
Then you want to say Ortiz was beating the world champion on both occasions before being splattered?
It’s good for Chisora, he finally won a close one. I had him winning Whyte 1 as well, and he was leading on my card in the rematch. Although the point deduction in rd11 would have seen it level. But he got KO’d that round anyway.
