    He's been CW & HW world champion, with a series of notable wins over Nicolai Valuev, John Ruiz and others. With a win over top contender Tyson Fury, where do you rank him in the HW ATG list?

    You're not taking this seriously, Robinson never fought at heavyweight.

    Top 20 eh he isn't on the top 20 or 30 he was only champion when the division was so very poor think how many contenders from the 70s would have beaten him, i mean Shavers, Quarry, Norton all beat him and thats not counting nearly all past champions, Haye was a great CW but as a HW very unproven and really achieved nothing

    now i like haye, but beating furey puts him nowhere.
    winning the title against anyone other than a klitchko, still puts him nowhere currently.

    I agree with the first part, disagree with part two. He easily beats most names listed in popular ATG lists, therefore he should be ranked among those names he clearly and easily beats.
