Tyson Fury has been ranked as the best heavyweight boxer in the world after his stunning destruction of Deontay Wilder.

Ring Magazine's rankings have put Fury on top of the list of heavyweights, knocking his British rival Anthony Joshua into second place.

The pair are due to meet in two showdowns in 2021 in one of the most highly-anticipated fights in British history.

Fury, also known as the "Gypsy King", remains unbeaten after 31 professional bouts.

Joshua was beaten by outsider Andy Ruiz Jr last summer, but got his revenge in the Clash on the Dunes in Saudi Arabia in December.
