I haven't really been into the HW division a lot lately, but I do like Wladimir Klitschko out of the names in the poll.. Wheres Samuel Peter?
I think Wlad has a bigger fan base then all other heavy's combined to be honest with you.... I do actually believe that ONE Wlad fight will bring more interest then putting all top ten heavy's in ring together... even though yeah the other russians how some fan base too such as Povetkin. Golota has a fan base but they don't come close to Wlad. Andrey
Out of the names given, it's probably Wlad world wide, with Golota being more popular in America. As far as whose the most popular active Heavyweight around the world, it's Evander Holyfield.
In America at least. The average sports fan probably doesn't know too many more HW names than Evander.
David Haye in the UK. At least he brings that exciteability element to the division. I know he isn't in the mix yet, but he is the undisputed Cruiser champ and has fought at Heavy before (v Bonin) Maybe too early yet to be honest, but just give him a win or two; at the moment I'd probably pick Vlad.
Yea until he gets ko by a real heavyweight. the bangwagon will be hit like a land mine and the hype will end there
