    It's a fair list. Not sure about Fury though. His next 3 fights should tell us a lot more about him.

    Do Fury, Solis or Price deserve to be in a Top 10 h2h ranking? Based on what wins exactly?

    Mines goes something like this

    1. Wlad
    2. Vitali
    3. Haye
    4. Chambers
    5. Povetkin
    6. Pulev
    7. Adamek
    8. Arreola
    9. Helenius
    10. Thompson

    I concede Tyson Fury is close enough to put in a Top 10 list but h2h he doesn't match up well with many Top 10 heavies--you put Fury in there with Arreola I'm unconvinced Tyson Fury wins that fight. Arreola may be slow but he's got more experience and ring craft and should have a shot at tapping that chin.

    Decent list but Povetkin goes ahead of Haye IMO.
