    "Current Top 10 Heavies" .. .so why do you list top 15?

    I would drop down Thompson below Valuev, Gomez out of top 10,
    McCall should be in top 10, Ruiz and Brock in top 15.

    I meant to type Current Top 15. Jet lagged still I guess. My bad.
    I forgot about Brock. He did beat Jamel awhile back.

    You caught me. I still like Evander, he is my favorite Heavy of all time. I don't like his chances against Sultan though. 115-111 is what I am predicting in favor of Ibragimov.

    No, the worst may happen for Holly is a draw due to his inactivity.
    I think he will UD Ibragimov or stop him in 8.

    In Russia! I don't think the roof will let that happen.
    Evander might pull off the upset. It would be sweet if he did.:happy

    Hi,

    Regarding Vlad Virchis, how would you rate his power compared
    to say a Ron Lyle, Earnie Shavers or George Foreman?

    I have never seen Virchis fight, though I have heard that he
    is powerful.

    Right up there with those guys. I saw like 5 of his fights on a DVD I rented in a videostore in Tver. The guy has minimal skills, but if he catches you :dead
    Here is a link to Virchis vs Serin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aO1XNtQo5Yc
