    Haye
    Price
    Fury
    Chisora

    Haye - Obvious
    Price - He's destroying (both power and boxing skills) his C and D level "oponents" in a way neither Fury or Chisora did.
    Fury - Despite looking a mess at times, fact is he's won all his fights including Chisora.
    CHisora - His current reputation is based on doing very well when losing, that's not good enough to get him back ahead of Fury.

    Chisora - fought the best opposition. looked decents doing so.
    Fury - beat Chisora but otherwise resume is on the weak side
    Price - up and comer...hopefully lots of potential
    Haye - Retired. horrible last fight. Will be #1 if he looks good or bad in a win vs Chisora and doesn't decide to retire again.
     
  4. Fury
    Chisora
    Haye
    Price

    That's the way I see it. The only reason Haye is better than Price is because of the experience.

    Chisora
    Price


    I'm not convinced that the Chisora Fury beat handily is THAT different from the one who fought Helenius and Vitali.

    the same can be said for fury, he came in weighing 10lbs less in last fight compared to the chisora fight.
    and 25lbs less than the 2nd mcdermott fight.

    I also wouldn't be surprised to see richard towers beat fury and chisora,
    if he beats Wallisch in his next fight, i would say he has a better win than price, fury and chisora have.

    Against Martin ****in' Rogan.

    :rofl

    Also, weight loss isn't something you rank fighters on.

    Before you even say it... Saglam's record was incredibly padded.

    I know it isnt, I'm countering the point that chisora should be ranked above fury because he weighed less in his next fight.

    Price's and Chisora's best wins are against Sexton. I think Wallisch is better than Sexton. So if Richard Towers beats Wallisch in their scheduled fight, he would a win against a better opponent than Price and Chisora do.

    Fury's best win is Chisora, it is too early to say if Wallisch is better than chisora, but I expect to see him ranked higher than Chisora in a few years.

    Haye..

    The other three are hard to separate. Price looks good, but in unproven and a bit raw. Chisora is hot and cold with his performances.

    No, that isn't my full argument.

    Yes, the weight does play an issue. But it's more to do with the fact that after dropping 20 lbs Chisora was able to beat Heleinus, unofficially, and give Vitali his hardest fight in a long time.

    Haye
    Fury
    Chisora
    Price
    Towers

    Fury gets massively underrated on ESB, he's a good HW & will get better imo. Along with that top 5 there's also Sexton, Larry O, Big John McDermott, Dallas, Cornish & others which makes the domestic scene very healthy at the mo.

    There's also a very good future rivaly between unbeaten prospect Dillian Whyte & 2012 Olympian Anthony Joshua who'll be turning pro after the games.
