Aside from the Klitschkos, is Sultan Ibragimov world's best heavy?

    Chagaev is overrated here. he barely got past Valuev and Ruiz.No other names in his record.

    Chagaev looked poor last time out against a guy with an undefeated but poor quality resume, Carl Davis Drummond.

    Povetkin did not impress me against Chambers in fact I felt it was more chambers losing the fight than povetkin winning it, Chambers negativity cost him. Valuev was beaten by Holyfield enough said, Haye is still unproven and would be taken apart by either of the klits.

    Iggy IS retired, there's no management problem. He hasn't fought in over a year, he was talking about retirement before the Klitschko fight due to pressure from his family. He accomplished what he wanted to, and moved on. Here's a source from last month, there's half a dozen sites at least that state he's done.

    With that, my vote goes to Povetkin.

    Chagaev is a good fighter. Povetkin is good and Ibragimov is underrated. Valoeuv can fight when he wants to but his new trainer sucks.

    I don't know who any of those guys are. The Klits are the only Heavies I care about.

    Lots of good heavyweights fighting today.

    Klitschkos, both Vitali and Vlad.

    Chagaev

    Dimitrenko

    Ibragimov

    Valouev, if he gets rid of his new trainer.

    I quite disagree with you. Povetkin has all the tools and experience to beat someone like Sultan.
