    Yes I would, you've got to give credit to guys who have decent wins in the division you are ranking IMHO.

    Heavies

    Champ: Wladimir Klitschko

    1. Vitali Klitschko
    2. Alexander Povetkin
    3. Eddie Chambers
    4. Ruslan Chagaev
    5. Nikolai Valuev
    6. John Ruiz
    7. David Haye
    8. Denis Boytsov
    9. Sam Peter
    10. Chris Arreola

    I know Ruiz is a ***** but you have to accept he has a decent body of heavyweight work. You can't deny him that because he's boring, its not a popularity contest :good

    Making this list was quite depressing towards the end where I've got to seperate prospects that havn't done ****, and put Sam Peter in there purely because he's done something.

    I wonder what the ****s from the general would say with us ranking Arreola and Chambers above our very own David Haye?! I'd love to see a general forum thread like this! It would be so funny.

    So is everyone in agreement that Boystov should be in the Heavyweight top 10?

    Definitely. He's not exactly got anything substantial on his resume, but there is a cut off point in these rankings where you have to largely lean further towards ability - and Boytsov is a rare shining light in the division.

    Unless you want to put old ass Lamon Brewster or James Toney in there. Could certainly be argued.

    :yep

    I would go with TFFP's list, it's pretty solid. Though you might want to drop Ruiz a spot or two :good

    Then we can begin work on the light-middles :yep

    Yep, spot on all. God awful seeing Haye below Ruiz but fairness is key!
