Like all good rankings they are based on a combination of quality of performances and standard of opposition. 1. Wladimir Klitschko 2. David Haye 3. Vitali Klitschko 4. Kubrat Pulev 5. Tyson Fury 6. Johnathon Banks 7. Alexander Povetkin 8. Vyacheslav Glazkov 9. David Price 10. Steve Cunningham
In what way is this trolling? Can you point out where you feel there have been errors in my methodology and which names you would suggest otherwise?
Your location and too high ranking of the Brits is a dead give away Fury and Price need at least one more quality win (vs top 10 comp) to be ranked that high. You're ranking them more on potential than accomplishment. Banks KOing chinny Mitchel does not rate a #6 ranking. Finally, Haye at #2 in the world :shock: is pure trolling :yep
Vitali rightfully claimed his spot as the division's #2 when he beat Peter back in 08, since then he has beaten everyone put in front of him, and nobody other than Wlad can claim to have a better resume than him. So until he retires or losses, he will have the #2 spot. Povetkin has taken care of a lot of Wlad's leftovers and has even beaten a couple of good HWs like Champers. So he is #3. 1.Wlad 2.Vitali 3.Povetkin That is pretty much set in stone for me. The rest is up for grabs..
Haye TKO5 Chisora, Vitali UD12 Chisora. Factor in Vitali's age and it makes sense. Fury UD12 Johnson is better than what any of the fighters ranked below him have done over the past two years. Price, I agree, has not fought the best opponents but he has been so dominant that I can't not rank him. Who would you rank instead of the fighters named?
What happened in 2008 is irrelevant. These are December 2012 rankings. Vitali has not beaten anyone better than Chisora over the past 18 months, and Haye beat Chisora more convincingly than Vitali did, so Haye > Vitali as of December 2012. Factor in Vitali's obvious age/slowing down and it makes perfect sense. Fury UD12 Johnson, Haye TKO5 Chisora, Pulev KO Dimitrenko/Ustinov and Banks TKO2 Mitchell are all better wins than anything Povetkin has done since beating Chambers five years ago, and that was FIVE years ago.
if you beat a guy with a 1-3 record in his last 4 fights, ans lose embarrassing before , you are automatically number two? wtf is this? brittard logic?
Are you denying that Haye beat Chisora more convincingly than Vitali did? If so, you're a troll. Chisora beat Helenius, everyone knows that. These "he lost 3 of his last 4" comments are irrelevant trolling and Boxrec warrior logic.
ok, he lost 2 of his last 4, against green Fury and one handed Vitali plus he won aganist one handed Hilenius. wow what a record. :hi: also haye lost his pervius fight. So Foreman should be the greatest, because he KTFO Frazier 2 times?
And one of those losses was against Vitali - Haye went on to beat Chisora more convincingly than Vitali did. What part of this do you find so hard to understand? Obviously Ali has a better overall resume than Foreman - we are not looking at overall careers, we are looking at who is better than who as of December 2012 - before Foreman and Ali fought, pretty much everyone ranked Foreman over Ali based heavily on Foreman's more impressive win over Frazier. This is how rankings work. You just can't come to terms with the fact that one of your favourite fighters is in decline and is not the fighter he once was. Just to dismiss all this "Brittard" nonsense, Vitali irrefutably has a better overall resume than Haye.
Great rankings, here is my top 10 WW: 1- Mayweather 2- Brook 3- Matthew Hatton 4- Tim Bradley 5- Ricky Hatton 6- Malignaggi 7- Marquez 8- Pacquiao 9- Alexander 10- Witter
