Good for them for not putting Wilder on there. I was sort of surprised to see Pulev as the number 1 but I guess I really can't complain as he is Wlad's next mandatory (not that that always means something) I don't personally really have any complaints.
It makes sense. Pulev had a win last year over a Ring top ten HW (at the time) in Alexander Dimitrenko, and another win this year over a Ring top ten HW (at the time) in Tony Thompson. That's more than anyone else did.
Where is the monster Mago he will give Wlad a run for money till round 7 then he gases out. Or he KO's Wlad if he trys to trade with him within the early 7 rounds or less.....
What I don't get is why Haye's still in there. I read an article on their site and the athor (I think it was Hauser) said that Povetkin had become the #1 and Pulev the #2 (now #1) because Vitali didn't fight for over a year because of his injury so he was removed from their rankings... Logical and fair imo. Now, why's Haye still in there since his last fight is even longer ago and also doesn't fight because of the same reason?! :blood
haye has been bringing excitement to a dead heavyweight division since 2008 with his 6 total fights. yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn
