Ring Magazine have updated their heavyweight and pound-for-pound rankings following Anthony Joshua's crushing defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.
Joshua lost his world heavyweight titles to Usyk in Tottenham last weekend.
The Ukrainian put on a masterful display to earn a unanimous decision, becoming a two-weight world champion following his heroics at cruiserweight.
The 34-year-old not only collected the WBA (super), IBF and WBO belts, but also a desirable spot in the heavyweight and pound-for-pound rankings.

He is now the No.1 ranked heavyweight behind the Ring Magazine champion Tyson Fury, with Joshua dropping to No.2 ahead of third-placed Deontay Wilder and fourth-placed Dillian Whyte.
Joseph Parker, Andy Ruiz Jr, Luis Ortiz, Michael Hunter, Oscar Rivas and Joe Joyce make up the top ten.
