    Charr is a talented HW. I didn't have him on my list because he is former title challenger. My list is of upcoming prospects and contenders. Charr very well could be the first Arab Heavyweight Champion of the World when Wlad retires and his belts will be split among the organizations for the vacant titles.

    Come to think of it. Why did White people have to take so much shite from Heavyweight boxing. There has never been an Asian Heavyweight Champion, Mexican Heavyweight Champion, Arab Heavyweight Champion, South American Heavyweight Champion, Samoan, etc, etc, etc. But the zionist media loves to trash " Great White Hopes". From the 60's to 90's yeah ,that is long past history now. But throught the entire rest of boxing history there has been a lot a great white Heavyweights.

    Great black hopes are the norm now. Price is the one guy that can even remotely fill Wlad's shoes when he retires. Now, the question is, will he retire him(very unlikely) or lose to Wlad and then mark out a great career(likely).

    Mag is a guy I really want to see more. He has great upside.

    The real ideal would be if they all fought each other regularly so a loss or even three or four wasn't the end of the world.

    Having a bunch of good fighters doesn't amount to the division being "awesome". The guys have to actually fight each other, and htey don't. Vitali has never wanted to fight slick guys like Chambers and Chagaev, and is now ducking Haye (who has become just as slick recently).

    Well I dont care.... Im excited for the division.

    However, what can kill that excitement is nobody fighting eachother.

    If these guys start fighting eachother then by all means, I will support the division 100%

    I think the HW division is betetr than a few years ago there are some interesting match ups. It's not as good as it was in the 90s but better than just 2 years ago at least in terms of prospects the thing is that someone has just to get them fight each other and the post Klit era could be interesting
