    Default Most ambitious heavy over the last 12 months.

    Rank the top 5 heavyweights who have shown the most ambition to get ranked for a title shot over the last 12 months, staying busy, fighting ranked opponents etc.

    1. Bermane Stiverne
    2. Kubrat Pulev
    3. Robert Helenius
    4. Malik Scott
    5. Tomasz Adamek

    Note: Francesco Pianeta would have topped that list, as Wlad said he showed ambition to get his title shot. Seth Mitchell might have stunk out the place, but he showed ambition avenging his loss.

    Stiverne has had 1 fight against Arreola who was ranked lower than Cunningham and Johnson...

    Sorry, this was just to prove a point that right now, Fury is doing as much as anyone if not more to earn a shot.

    You're shitting me? Oh fuck how didn't I crack that code. All you've done is highlight the fact that you don't know shit about boxing. Cunningham had lost 3 of his last 4 when he fought Fury and boxed once at Heavyweight and Kevin Johnson lost in Prizefighter. Neither of these 2 were ranked higher than Arreola.

    They were and still are

    BoxRec Boxing Records

    Granted this is boxrec but its a fairer ranking system as no one is getting paid to get ranked, its all on some points system.

    Haye is ranked just 2 places higher but fact of the matter is its hard to find anyone who has done more the past 12 months. Joke most of them fighting just once a year, even twice is crap. They should be trying to stay busy and sharp.

    Ambition and heavyweight are too often strangers He gets no push, but I'm buying into Bryant Jennings wayyyyy before a Seth Mitchell or Scott if we're talking literal ambition! Blah blah size size. I know I know

    I knew you just looked at boxrec when judging fighters. Fucking clueless bastard.
