... With his defeat of Deontay Wilder, Fury became the third heavyweight, after Floyd Patterson and Muhammad Ali, to hold The Ring magazine title twice, and is widely considered by media outlets to be the lineal heavyweight champion.[7][8][9][10] As of December 2022, Fury is ranked as the world's best active heavyweight by BoxRec[11] and ESPN,[12] he is also ranked sixth pound-for-pound by ESPN[13] and the Boxing Writers Association of America,[14] and seventh by the Transnational Boxing Rankings Board.[15] ...

Tyson Fury is no longer ranked the world's best active heavyweight by BoxRec, but is now ranked #3 Jsmit0 (talk) 01:04, 28 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Pinchme123 (talk) 01:05, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Francis Ngannou

Question: When Fury defeats Ngannou, will his fight be added to the pro record or to an exhibition record? The WBC have stated that the fight will be counted as an official bout but BoxRec does not have the fight displayed on their records. There appears to be a dilemma here.
