    Rocky's average is actually 87.76 %, but that is nit-picking. I'll give him 88%.

    Timeline of WBA HW title

    1. Ruslan Chagaev (then champ) fought Wlad and lost (title not at stake for some odd reason) after Haye ducked Wlad
    2. Ruslan got stripped for no apparent reason
    3. Valuev gets WBA title as a gift Ruslan who previously beat Valuev is made Mandatory
    4. Evander Holyfield beats Valuev, but gets blatantly robbed (at 44 and being physicaly smaller than Haye)
    5. David Haye beats Nikolay Valuev, while fighting the same way that Evander fought Valuev via MD in a fight that could have gone either way.

    Ruslans title wasn't at stake because he was denied a licence to fight because he was ill with Hepatitis. So K2 used backdoor methods to get the fight made, similar to Frank Warenn with Haye/Chisora.

    I also don't think Holyfield is really any smaller than Haye, there may have half an inch or an inch difference.

    The Valuev fight could also not have gone either way, Valuev was unable to land on Haye...the fight was a stinker, but Haye made sure he outlanded him every round and was barely hit.

    So what?

    Some random guy broke the consecutive first round knockouts record, does not mean he's the biggest banger ever, does it?

    Take away the losses and his 38 KOs in 40 wins = 95%.

    Can anyone find a heavyweight champion who even equals that?
