Thread: Top 3 Heavyweight besides Klitschko's

Here's who I got for the top 5 Heavyweights outside of the Klitschko brothers.
1. Povetkin (mainly due to the fact that he is a titleholder)
2. Tomasz Adamek (fought 4 times in 2012 and has a fight coming up August 3rd)
3. Kubrat Pulev (Has stepped up his game as far as opposition, however, still a little inexperienced)

wheres the other 2?

lol sorry i meant 3...its a tough list to choose from

Cunningham was robbed against Adamek. The amount of hate Fury gets in here, he KO'd Cunningham, left no doubt. He also maybe should have lost the decision against a one armed fighter in Chambers and Travis Walker is miles away from being any where near a contender

Pulev
Povetkin
Haye

They are my 3. Shows how poor the div is.

thats a good list though, haye just needs to be more active...it would be nice to see one of those three knock off the current champs though

After Wlad and Vitali the division shapes up like this

1. Pulev
2. Povetkin
3. Adamek
4. Haye
5. Fury
6. Stiverne
7. Thompson
8. Jennings
9. Price
10. Arreola/Banks/Mitchell

Again, after their respective Cunningham fights, why would anyone have Adamek above Fury? Fury got dropped but if he had fought more disciplined like he did against Johnson then the knockdown wouldn't have happened but as it was, on his worst showing he KOd a man that should have got the decision against Adamek.

Why does everyone overlook Audley Harrison? He won gold you know? 😶

If this was written on "paper" it wouldn't worth the paper its on!Paper is a valued commodity these days..........................the Heavyweight Division .........isn't!!! Ray

Haye smashes Adamek and Povetkin.

Pulev is harder but I'd fancy Haye still.


Haye
Pulev
Povetkin

P.s. Adamek? Really? Disappointed in you all.

How the fudge is anybody gunna rank Adamek above Haye? C'mon man, gotta get a clue here. Haye would absolutely destroy Adamek.

Adamek is a Light Heavyweight and Cunningham is a Cruiserweight, what happens between those two has nothing to do with Fury getting dropped hard by an old cruiserweight and then having to headlock his way to a KO.

So again, how does Adamek rank above Fury?

Have to agree with Ross here even tho it pains me to do so. Can't have Adamek above Fury. In saying that I'd still have Price ahead of Fury desire his loss. I may retract that statement after the weekend tho
