Ring Magazine has released its monthly rankings for the top boxers in the heavyweight category.
Tyson Fury still tops the rankings as the reigning champion of the Ring Magazine belt while other fighters like Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder follow suit.
Joshua ranks second while Deontay Wilder ranks third.
Dillian Whyte is ranked 5th while Alexander Povetkin who Whyte lost to last August is ranked 4th.
Whyte is set to face Povetkin this weekend in Gilbatrar.
Had Whyte been victorious in the first fight he would have officially been next in line for Tyson Fury’s WBC heavyweight title.
Fury, meanwhile, is set to meet Anthony Joshua twice in 2021 as they look to crown an undisputed heavyweight champion with all the belts on the line.
