ESB Brit Forum World Rankings

I don't like having Wlad as champ as long as Vitali is around

Bute should be ahead of Froch and imo Andrade too.

Hopkins ahead of Dawson until Dawson beats Johnson convincingly

a few more comments but overall its a good list

 

williams should be higher, hatton should be lower (wheres ricardo torres)??? valuev should be much lower, haye shouldn't be on the HW list. also, i would have juan diaz up one spot ahead of casamayor at #2. everything else is looking pretty good to me.

 

By the way the other Divisions look spot on.

Heavyweight

1. Wlad Klitschko
2. Vitali Klitschko
3. Alex Povetkin
4. Eddie Chambers
5. Cris Arreola
6. Ruslan Chagaev
7. Nico Valuev
8. Sam Peter
9. Oleg Maskaev
10. Jawny Ruiz


All have done more than Haye at heavyweight. If Haye beats Valuev he could be ranked 6 or 7. Valuev at #2 is laughable he lost to Chagaev and Holyfield and then refused to get a vaccination and fight Chagaev in a rematch.

Beating Bonin and a faded Monte Barret in a sloppy fight do not make you a legit top 10 Heavyweight.

 

Another classy post by someone on here who doesn't want to talk about boxing but instead just wants to throw around pathetic, snide little insults. Congratulations on being you:good.

As for Valuev's ranking, he is there because (as much as we didn't want to put him on there) of his achievements not potential. Do you pride yourself on picking fights behind your keyboard, Rico?

 

Wlad has been the most consistent over the last few years. Vitali's inactivity prior to recent 2 fights have affected his ranking:good. Wlad is the lineal champ as far as we are concerned:good.

You're a good poster, PHILLA, but I would love to the the General Forum's band of merry men try and attempt something impartial like this. I'd give it around 2 minutes before it descended into complete chaos:?:rofl.

 

Well cheers for the compliment to the other divisions and for replying. :good

Although Valuev did get away with it against Holyfield and even Ruiz, you have to count these 'wins' as they are, the same with Sturm being above Gevor even though, in my opinion, Gevor was robbed.

Haye is in the list, not just on his record at heavyweight, but including his record at cruiser, although his record at cruiser is not held at such a high regard compared to his heavyweight record in the lists.

 

But getting floored by Walker and beating a faded Mccline, being out of shape and fighting with sloppy boxing skills does? you reak of bias Rico. I agree Valuev should be around 7, but Arreola number 5? you must be smoking some high grade green :hat

 

You speak OUR language and practicly every white american exists because of our country, every other american lives in a country civilized by euro's particulaly the english. This is fact. Why do you have to insult other nations for no reason other than to big yourself up? All you are doing is embarrasing yourself with your biggot views on a BOXING forum.

 

OK then why is Haye in the top ten then? he has 2 fights at heavy and neither of them were a fighter that should of elevated him into the top 10?

 

Your reasons please?

 

This Haye stuff is getting ridiculous!!! Since when did it become biased for the unified champ at a lower weight to move in to the top 10 of the weight above?? There's no bias there at all and nobody would've complained had Campbell been on the LWW list and he hasn't even fought there.

By the way I'm not even English...

 

I'd have Bradley above Hatton at 140 and i think Donaire has possibly done enough at 112 to be ranked as the champion of the division, other than that it seems about right.
