I would rank Pulev after the fight vs H. Fury.

I do not rank Breazeale as he is inactive.

 

guess we will disagree then. i actually lived through the seventies, eighties, and nineties.

 

My God I'd forgotten about Pulev completely as he hasn't fought for so long. Breazeale fought 11 months ago so he's still just in my top 10 but agreed about Pulev not fought for 18 months at his age who knows what he has left, looked awful vs Johnson best to see how he does vs Fury.

 

I am 42!

 

Chisora at #15??

Hahahaha ok dude

 

Of course. Maybe you can place him one or two spots above but Top 10? NEVER. Who did he beat actually to deserve a higher ranking? He looked SHOT (!!!) before he fought Takam tbh.

His Top 3 wins :

1. Takam
2. Johnson (back in 2014)
3. Scott (back in 2013)

Chisora did absolutely NOTHING and only fought bums and cab drivers in the near past.

Takam was outboxing him badly and Chisora landed a lucky punch...good win but so what?

Is he a Top 10 HW because of that? LMAO

You clearly DKSAB.

 

Granted, Chisora is inconsistent but he beat Takam and Takam went distance with Parker and almost AJ.

AJ couldn't knock Takam out and he had plenty of chances you've ranked him number one.

Chisora did not get a lucky punch on Takam, it was well planed and executed far in advance. It is a punch he has honed and practised he's entire career. And yeah he took a beating, but that was his plan, rope a dope, he's camp training with Jennings proved this.

He knocked Takam down once, and TKO'd him with the exact same shot, this is not lucky.

He did what AJ and Parker could not achieve.

The Takam that fought Chisora would be a hard days work for any fighter. And Chisora soaked all that up, he would walk through many guys you've placed above him.

He went life and death with Whyte, and Whyte ain't no average opponent.

Knownacki over Chisora? That is ridiculousness.

Chisora would eff him up.

Knownacki went life and death with Martin who was put out in like 2 rounds against AJ.

Takam is WAY tougher than that, and Chisora put his lights out.

Come on man... use your brain for god's sake. Tyson Fury is inactive and you got him way high up. Jeez Louise Mother and Joseph.

 

1. Joshua
2. Wilder
3. Povetkin
4. Whyte
5. Ortiz
6. Parker
7. Pulev
8. Breazeale
9. Miller
10. Kabayel

Haven't put Fury back in yet, he'll go back in when he fights someone in the top 15, can't really justify him yet on the back of a poor performance v Pianeta who got chinned of Kevin Johnson in.better fashion a year before.

EDITED as forgot about a Pulev.

 

It's a fair list but Kabayel and Breazeale? I am not sure about that man... there are lot of heavyweights out there at the moment..

 

Parker couldn't even knock out Cojanu who was badly hammered and knocked out by Ortiz in 2. So what?

AJ hurt Takam badly and of course the stoppage was **** and too early and it wasn't as clean as Chisoras stoppage but i am asking again: So what?

Takam wasn't as active vs Joshua than he was vs Chisora, he was running away from Joshua and survived. Vs Chisora he was constantly pressuring Chisora and he slowed down, gassed out and was caught by a big overhand right twice. Happens. It's Chisoras best shot and he has some power, no doubt. But only because he stopped Takam via clean TKO and knocked him down and AJ couldn't i do not rank Chisora as a Top 10 HW. This is nonsense.

Kownacki would beat Chisora and i tell you why: He has a granite chin and is active in the ring with his pressure style. Martin caught Kownacki with some BIG bombs and Kownacki wasn't even wobbling.

Chisora isn't as good as you might think. He is still a solid win for everyone and tough as nails as we saw but he isn't Top 10/12 for me. And i think there is no logic reason to put him in there.

 

I forgot Pulev who would be seven tbf, after that it's a pick em. Because most of the fringe contenders have a couple od solid wins and not much else.

 

Takam was not running away in the AJ fight, it just so happens style make fights, and Takam pressured Chisora.

"AJ hurt Takam badly and of course the stoppage was **** and too early and it wasn't as clean as Chisoras stoppage but i am asking again: So what?"

LOL? Erm... so everything? Lol why are you ignoring the relevance of this? AJ is number one, and he couldn't knock takam out, when he had PLENTY of chances. The stoppage was early, so I see it as Takam surviving AJ's attacks and pressure which SAYS A LOT. Because in the Parker fight, Parker was a lot more mobile.

For Chisora to KO Takam, cleanly, and not by luck... is a statement following AJ v Takam.

Knownacki granite chin? Because he took sloppy, half assed shots from a shot Martin took how long out of the ring? Drug problems, depression, lack of motiviation, suicidal. NOW I can say SO WHAT!

That fight was pathetic, just ask out resident experts here on the Forum that know a thing or two.

Fact is, Knownacki is unproven, and granite chin status only gets handed out when you get punched by someone who can punch hard and properly. I back Chisora to beat Knownacki right now... and I put money on it, and I wager you.

Chisora is underrated, and he was completely written off against Takam, and he showed a lot in that fight of where he currently stands. Takam aint as bad as you might think he is and Chisora definitely didn't get lucky.

The best strategy and pre-fight strategy I seen in a while from Team Chisora, I don't know how they got it so right. It's eerie.

Agree to disagree.

 

Chisora SHOWED nothing vs Takam apart from two overhand rights.

Chisora looked HORRIBLE vs Kabayel and was beaten by Kabayel who isn't even in my Top 15 right now.

Kownacki beats Chisora. Chisora has nothing to hurt Kownacki.

If the fight ever happens, i do not think so, i would take ANY bet.

Chisora is decent, solid but nothing special anymore. With a bit more of passion in his younger years he could have achieved a bit more than he did but overall he is pretty limited and we saw that vs. Takam.

And if we rank Chisora that high because he knocked out / down Takam then we should rank Harold Sconiers also as a Top 10 HW because he is the ONLY pro boxer who ever knocked down Deontay Wilder.

Please...

I ranked Chisora #15 not at #25 so what's the deal? Are we arguing because he should deserve #13, #11? LMAO

FFS

 

Must we do one of these lists every other week? Here's the list I posted at the start of the month, and nothing has changed since then.

They're haters, and/or idiots. The ONLY fighter you could possibly rank above Joshua is Fury, and that's due to lineage, and even then with a three year lay off, 2 retirements and a drug ban; anyone could make a very good case for the lineage being dead.

 

yeah, it was a good win and finish, but i can't ignore the fact Takam was absolutely battering Chisora. And Kownacki/Martin wasn't "pathetic", that was actually a good fight
