Top 5 US Heavyweights

[Weebler I]

1. Andy Ruiz Jr.

2. Deontay Wilder

3. Jared Anderson

4. Michael Hunter

5. Jarell Miller


Would that be accurate after the weekend's fights, or have I missed out another top 5 boxer?

[One Of A Kind]

I'd have Franklin above Miller

[M312]

Ruiz is inactive, shouldn't be on the list.

I think the reality is any of those guys could beat Wilder.

Hard to say whos top. They all need to step it up now.

I would say maybe only Jared Anderson and that too depends on how he evolves.

Andy is too indisciplined to be any good again. Wilder probably calls it a day or comes for one last paycheck collection but has lost interest in the game. Hunter sounds similar. Miller is a question mark too. So, right now the US has no serious name in HW boxing and I do not see any upcoming championship material either. Boxing is not in the top-5 highest-paying sports in the US so that could be a reason.

Well, Wilder and Miller lost last night. You might have better luck picking the top 5 super models over 60.

I would say that Anderson is the best of a sorry lot. DUI and Gun charges non withstanding.

Boxrec says:

Jared
Deontay
Cassius Chaney lol
Joe Cusumano lmao
Michael Hunter

Sh^ts bleak.

Among active guys I'd have:

Deontay even tho he sh^t the bed yesterday
Jared
Jermaine Franklin
Michael Hunter
Big Baby Miller

Its definitely a bleak US HW era & specifically rn is sh^tty.

1. Andy Ruiz

Whos your #6 guy cuz Andy ain't even a legit active guy. Hes fought once in the last 2 1/2 years & ain't fought at all in 15mos.

[Stuntman Mike]

I'd have Franklin above Miller

Because he lost to whyte and joshua ?

Millers best win in browne is more than franklins done on paper anyways

[juggernaut666]

I think better prospects will be over a lot of these guys within 2 years .

When Sonny Conto and Richard Torrez Jr . Start stepping it up .

Right now ?

1. Anderson
2. Wilder
3. Miller
4. Franklin
5. Hunter


I’m not putting Ruiz bc he’s inactive,no one who’s purposely being inactive over a year should be on any list ,penalize them until they defeat a top rated guy or an opponent that’s been somewhat decent at least .

You could even make a case for Martin if he comes back in the mix . Right now many top guys are still green the seasoned guys are still a factor and Ortiz is not the boogeyman anymore he’s a ghost now you never see or hear him .

And is Wallin a U.S fighter ? If so this list has to be altered .
