The authoritative British publication talkSPORT published a rating of boxers who had the best time in 2022.
Oleksandr Usyk (20-0, 13 KOs) rounded out the top three.
"Usyk only needed to repeat his trick from 2021 and beat Joshua again. But he faced a more focused AJ, with the best plan for the fight.
As a result, Usyk still won. The flamboyant Ukrainian slugger showed his skills and courage to defeat the burly Briton in the ring, then kept his cool in London five months later as Fury pelted him with insults. Just not human," the message says.
They overtook the Ukrainian in the rating
the WBA champion in the light heavyweight category, Russian Dmytro Bivol (21-0, 11 KOs) and the newly minted absolute champion of the lightest weight, the Japanese Naoya "Monster" Inoue (24-0, 21 KOs).
