    There are a few good fights to make but when a cruiserweight talks trash and gets all the coverage doing so then you know the heavyweight is in need of serious talent and competition. There are some good fights to be made though, there's no denying that but the competition is poor. Only three fighters that have some serious skills in the division right now, Haye(sadly based on his Cruiserweight record), Povetkin and the #1 fighter Wladimir. Valuev is complete garbage and nothing but a circus show, then comes the injured Chagaev who is good but might not compete for a long time, Peter isn't bad but lacks skills and also the first Wladimir fight seems to have softened his chin a bit and with his defense that would cause him nightmares.

    Check out his amateur record and the level of competition he faced so early in his professional career, last time I remember the idiots here gave him no chance at all to win the tournament yet he won and is now the #1 contender.
