    1) any unification fight (wlad, vitali )
    2) david haye
    3) Alexander Povetkin
    4) Alexander Dimetrenko
    5) Chris Arreola

    Thunder: there are some guys out there that can fill the void ... this guy is boring to watch and he's 0-3 against Valuev and Chagaev ... why are they setting these guys up to fight again?

    I'd like to see Povetkin fight ... why isn't he brought in to be a top 5 contender ... a chance to fight for the WBA title ... either against Chagaev or Valuev ... i'm sure he could beat both of those guys.

    A couple years back I was reading a ring magazine that said Ruiz was Jason from the "Friday of the 13th", because no matter what you do the man he will never just die and go away.

    Well, throw in Golota, Medina, and Juarez. I don't agree with Ruiz or the names I posted as fighters that suck, but Medina and Ruiz have been champions more than once. Golota and Juarez are still trying. I have to agree though, it is strange that he is ranked number one and the next opponent for Valuev or Chaguev. Holyfield also gave Valuev trouble.

    Don King, without him he would of never gotten as many cracks at a belt. Though, while he's not that interesting to watch fight, he's no better or worse than the other guys getting shots at belts. His matches against Chagaev and Valuev all could of went either way.

    Wlad busy
    Vitali busy
    Haye busy
    Povetkin busy
    Arreola busy and Dimitrenko probably still wants to beat old man Krasniqi again.
    The division is rubbish and shouldn't even interest us at all.It's boring and ****,like it's no 1 guy.

    I don't think it is fair to blame Ruiz for this mess. I am not a big Ruiz fan but he has never backed down from a fight and is willing to go up against the best of them, and he has fought the majority of top 10 contenders over his career.

    I do blame the sanctioning bodies for this mess. Who cares anyway? Belts do not matter.
