    I voted on who would do best vs the current champs and that would be EVANDER HOLYFIELD.

    Sure he's old, sure he can't fight like he used to, but do you see anyone else who could possibly MAYBE last the distance with Wlad and Vitali AND beat Valuev (which in my eyes Evander already did). I'm not saying I would ever want to see Evander take on Wlad or Vitali, but he's still a tough SOB

    Sad, but every guy on that list is just another potential victim for those big Russian brothers.

    fast eddie would own arreola

    Having to actually decide between arreola and chambers really does hit home how seriously poor this division is right now

    He never said he could beat Chambers. He said he has gone for the man who he thinks would have the best chance against the current world champs and I agree! I voted Chambers because if the names listed went face to face I think Chambers would be the top man but if I was to put them in with the brothers I too think that Evander would have more chance than anyone else.

    I knew I would be able to get at least one of our American friends to bite.


    After years of British heavyweights getting slated by the US boxing fans and press you cant blame use for gloating a small bit.(even if I would love a good american HW to clean up the division)

    How big is the US compared to the UK ? Obviously its going to have more and better heavyweights. But who has the best heavyweight out both the US and UK ? David Haye, without doubt. You cant say anybody on that list would beat Haye.

    Too bad we cannot make a sort of Frankenstein out of all.It would take a piece of each to make a major player.Life long Holyfield fan but that ship has to and should have already sailed.

    Think Chambers is currently the best skilled and pure boxer.But we've seen Chris Byrd already...and frankly Byrd fought with more intensity,ugh.I'll go with Kevin Johnson.He's still a toss up but fast hands,height-size to compete,confidence in bundles.I think he'll have a tough time getting huge fights....Arreola if your going for raw pure power.

    Eddie Chambers is clearly the best of that group.
