In boxing, heavyweights always have reigned supreme. But who reigns supreme amongst them? Anthony Joshua, once a king, now a predator climbing back up. He’s just KO’d a giant, shaking up the entire heavyweight hierarchy. Surprised? So is the boxing community.

Behind him, Joseph Parker lurks after his win against Deontay Wilder, steady yet overshadowed. Their world is a chessboard, each move reshaping the landscape. Tyson Fury, Oleksandr Usyk, Joe Joyce are also in the rankings. But who is the king of this division?

Anthony Joshua is ready to challenge the kings!

At the pinnacle stands Oleksandr Usyk, unwavering in his reign, the undisputed maestro of the heavyweight symphony. Following closely is Tyson Fury, the British titan, whose spot at number one remains intact, even after a disappointing performance against Francis Ngannou. He is set to face Usyk on 18th May to decide who the ultimate king is.

The spotlight, however, shines brightly on Anthony Joshua, who maintained his second spot. His recent triumph over Francis Ngannou by knockout has not just revitalized his career but has also reshaped the boxing hierarchy.
