    I should have said highly rated prospect really.

    Helenius, Pulev and Dimitrenko have already made it to the top, they are genuinely tough fights for anybody now. Besides, if I were to include Helenius in this he would just win by a landslide and would make the poll pointless.



    I forgot about Boystov in fairness, but I could only add 10 options anyway.

    I went with Perez myself.

    In answer to your question though...I'm having trouble chosing between Price, Fury and Perez. I'll go for Perez. Surely Chisora is a HW top 30 contender?

    Perez for me, if he can stay away from the pub that is.

    None of them scream greatness and none of them will ever get anywhere near the level the Klitschko brothers are at.

    Based on what? His boxrec rankings? I have him around 50 somewhere, same as Fury. The winner of that fight should jump about 20 odd places up the rankings though.

    I meant is he not see as a top 30 contender by one of the sanctioning bodies? He's 32 according to the WBC and 12 by the WBO, so I guess he was lower ranked than I believed him to be. His scheduled fight with Wladimir had me believing he was higher ranked than that. His resume is pretty crap but this is the heavyweight division we are talking about.

    Of the fighters you list Glazkov and Price look the strongest. Chisora and Perez could also do big things if matched against the right opponents.
