    Personality and looks are all many people are giving him credit for. That's the problem.

    Given your location you wouldn't be a little biased there now would you?

    Yes. Except, calling Chambers a poor man's Byrd is a huge insult to Byrd.

    I know, I was a fan of Byrd when he was ruling a part of the heavies. A prime Byrd would decimate fat ass Chambers on any given night. Byrd is one more sad career ending in boxing....:-(.

    I don't think they'll be one person who dominates. It'll be like that time period between Lennox Lewis and Wlad Klitschko where title belts bounced around like groupies and we had no clue who the best HW was at the time.

    I could see Haye, Adamek, Arreola, Povetkin and Boystov all grabbing a title. I could even see The Quiet Man Kreuger reemerging from our nightmares are taking a belt.

    Yea I don't think there will be a clear successor, at least amongst the current crop. Haye is not young enough (not much age different with Wlad) and I think Wlad's style gives him better longevity than Haye. I think Arreola and Adamek will both be finished when WK retires, Povetkin might still be up there and I don't know enough about Boytsov or Solis

    Exactly, but we will have to wait for the outcome of the Arreola fight.

    none of the fighters are good enough to dominate. i think the belts will be changing hands very frequently. maybe david haye will rule for a little while, but i think he'll retire quite young with the money he'll make.

    Probably Adamek or Chambers but I know one thing, the hvy division needs more good fights and some upsets to draw in more people.

    I think a pair of best friends should form the new "2 headed dragon". They can each capture a belt or two and refuse to fight each other because they are best friends. The fans will except that because, no one would want to punch their bestest friend. There could possibly be some other guy with a belt out there, but no one would recognize him as legit because he isn't anyone's bff.

    Nobody, the K-Bros will retire with their belts and will then refuse to surrender them to the next wanna be champ. To claim the belts, the challengers will have to enter a game of death tournament and fight each other. In the end, they will be allowed to challenge for the K-Bro Belts, but they must fight both of them at the same time. If both K-Bros are defeated, then they must immediately fight a rematch against them. If they are defeated twice, they must then fight the K-Bros immediate family. The immediate family members are allowed to employ whatever means necessary to win, while the challenger is only allowed to use either everlast or reyes gloves. More than likely, the challenger will be facing the K-Bros father who is a Colonel in the Ukranian Air Force and will more than likely deploy an SU-35 Terminator as his chief offensive weapon. If the challenger manages to survive the SU-35 assault, he will then have to face the K-Bro mother who emphasizes a ground attack using T-90 main battle tank. If the challenger survives, he must then navigate a mine field while blindfolded and on an IV drop composed of dextrose and Smirnoff in order to secure the belts.

    Sounds pretty fair...
