    I would also agree.... sadly. Im Polish too. But anyways, Wlodarczyk could be the best in this division right now if he wanted to....he just basically has no heart and hes not really on the level of Adamek right now. Adamek would indeed, humiliate him.

    Oh ok. I don't check the home pages of each title's. I usually go to fightnews.com and click rankings. Seems that they don't update it often. Anyways thx.


    ps: Ignore Rumsfield. Hes stupid.

    Why notbody of you dident put Firat Arslan in the top ten . He beat Russian contender prospect with TKO 5, he beat also Brudov last two weeks and draw with Tokarev. He is the WBA interim champion.

    I don't have a top ten...but I think Johnathon Banks will end up being undisputed champ in a few years.

    If Brudov is 7 Hill is still in the top 10. It's impossible to rank guys like Arslan or Brudov much higher than Hill even if he did a sparring session for a big purse against Maske... Brudov won 1 round out of 12 against Hill and it was not 10 years ago, it was in 2006 !

    It looks like Guillermo Jones moved to HW, I would have him in the top-5 if he was still a cruiser.

    After his pathetic performance against Maske I for my part think it is fair to kick him out of the top 10,fitir!
    Virgil Hill looked like a totally shot fighter against that old geezer Maske who hadnt fight for more than 10 years before.

    Based on ...............? Huck beat Vadim Tokarev in his last fight,and there is no doubt that Tokarev was a top 5 fighter when he stepped into the ring to square off against Huck.
    Huck convincingly defeated Tokarev.
    Wlodarczyk and Cunningham looked quite poor compared with Huck who would probably beat both of them without much trouble anyway.
    Besides Wlodarcyk struggled with Karanevich-can you really imagine Huck having a death and life fight with Karanevich?
    As for Huck' s record do you seriously intend to tell me that Maccarinelli has a better fight record than Huck?

    By the way,snorkel,who the hell is "ding"?

    Well I can't claim to have seen the fight but it was an MD. Was it really convincing or not? Besides that though, his opposition isn't stellar and is certainly comparable with all the other people I've named and is worse than some too. In other words, based on opposition he isn't the 2nd best fighter in the division.

    My other criteria is accomplishments and as far as that goes, he's behind all the others who have held/still hold world belts. Haye's the only non-world title holder I mentioned but he's been european champ and is now Mormeck's mandatory. Huck hasn't managed that either. So, on accomplishments alone he's behind everybody I mentioned.

    Taking that into account, how you can rank him above everybody but Mormeck completely mystifies me.

    I'm not doubting that he's talented and may well be succesful, but as of right now he's no way the no.2 cruiser. You're making far too many assumptions such as 'can you really imagine Huck having a death and life fight with Karanevich?' and ' Wlodarczyk and Cunningham looked quite poor compared with Huck who would probably beat both of them without much trouble anyway.' That isn't any kind of objective way of ranking a top 10, it's like saying Zab Judah would beat Jermain Taylor because he looked better against Spinks than Taylor did.
