    He filed his OFFICIAL retirement papers...

    You ****ing idiot...

    What else does one have to do to retire? Must he die? Or will he always be active?

    When Erdei and Mayweather retired, he lost his belts and ranking.

    You ****ing joke...

    Haye is definitly not the best seeing as he has proven **** all, since entering the division. Yes, he's better than a past prime Ruiz and slightly better than Valuev, but what else can you say about him? Don't talk to me about his speed or power or his supposed legendary defence after running from Wlad. Say something about his accomplishments and performance in the ring which clearly seperate him from the pack. I don't see any.

    Perhaps more important than anything - Haye is simply not willing to face anyone else besides Vitali (which most suspect is just another attempt to cash in), to risk a little and prove that he is better than the rest. From day 1 as a heavyweight, Haye has been spoon fed to get the quickest rewards with the lowest possible risk. Until he proves otherwise, he is no better or worse than anyone in the top 5.

    :deal

    No-one else could ever rock this jacket like Haye. Look at him owning that little ****** next to him.

    Fashion GOAT and second/third best current Heavyweight in the world. This question could be answered if Vitali would man up and fight him.

    Haye. Then Povetkin. Then Solis. Then the rest.

    I'm sure it's been said already, but none stand out above the rest.

    There are a bunch of guys that are fairly even that I clump into the next group well down the line below the Klits.

    Agreed! It disturbs me how many hardcore boxing fans can be deceived by Haye's big mouth and lack of production.

    PS-As a side note, a strong argument can be made that the Valuev fight should have been at least a draw or maybe a loss.

    Will never happen. Vitali wants nothing to do with that slick blackness

    Did anyone like Seth Mitchell? I'd like to see him keep stepping up the comp. and see how hard he can really hit. He whooped the **** out of T.Ibragimov.

    Seth Mitchell I think is one quality win away from being a legit top ten heavyweight. Which may tell you something about the strength of this division outside of the top two!
