    Ok, Evander is the #1 definitely.

    But now I think Haye is #2. He has two great wins (Mormeck and Mac) that guys like Jirov, Gomez, Toney, or Adamek, don't have. Jirov and Gomez had longer reings, but Haye has better wins and was unstoppable at CW.

    I think I'm moving Haye to #2. Just because of him unifying the title and beating Mormeck/Macarinelli.

    Cunningham is also entering my Top10. And Marco Huck is a young fighter that could be great in the future.
     
  2. The fact that Qawi isn't even on your list shows you don't know what you're ****ing talking about.

    That's a quality list. Not much their to argue with at all. I do think you could find a place for Steve Cunningham in your top 10 though, wins over all the current belt holders is hard to top.

    he was 19-7 at cruiserweight and with loses against arthur williams, mike hunter
    robert daniels, and ossie ocasio.

    his record in world title fights is 2-3

    i think you'll have a hard time justifying his place in a top ten

    Not me, I'd look like Butterbean ! I'm more of a super bantamweight and I retired before my first bout just to make sure I never have to face Barrera and Morales ! :rofl

    Cruiser is typically a pass thru division where guys get a belt and just pursue a career at heavy in the 2000s we saw a real chance to unify and stay there

    its a great division great fights good fighters like old time in shape hwts

    but nobody stays there

    holyfield is number 1 obviously

    guys in the unification era like bell and mormeck deserve their respect

    gomez, nelson and jirov had long sucessful title reigns

    cunningham adamek and haye became the number 1s of their time

    too bad most vacate after a short stay

    David Haye doesn't have a resume as good as Adamek's, or even Thompson's. He ducked too many top cruiserweights.

    David Haye has done very little in his career.
