    Name 'em, rank 'em.

    I personally consider Lennox Lewis to be Canadian, but count him if you must.

    1. David Haye
    2. Tyson Fury
    3. Dereck Chisora
    4. David Price
    5. Audley Harrison

    It seems straight forward but I was tempted to put Fury above Haye but then I remembered how David KO'ed Chisora, not many other heavyweights if anyone could knock out Chisora like that.

    1.Myself Tyson Fury
    2.Hughie Fury
    3.Lennox Lewis
    4.Henry Cooper
    5.Frank Bruno


    I know Hughie hasn't proved himself yet but he's family, I know what he can do from sparring experience he's the real deal, and we will rule the division when I get rid of those Klitschko pussies.
