NEW FEATURE: KIRK'S ESB CHAMPIONSHIPS PRESENTS: THE OFFICIAL KIRK'S ESB CHAMPIONSHIPS DIVISIONAL RANKINGS! View the last few posts for more details but I will be running a new KIRK APPROVED feature called the Official Kirk's ESB championships divisional rankings where the kirksters and post their TOP 10 rankings for each of the divisions in boxing, We will only do one division at a time until we have the first rankings made, Then we will update them monthly, I'll go into that later but for now you guys gotta submit your rankings for our first division, Heavyweight, And after a week or 2 I will round them up and make one listed based on all of ours. So each vote counts! POST YOUR TOP 10 at Heavyweight now!
You might want to format that last post kirk, I didn't know exactly how to set it up. :thumbsup MY HEAVYWEIGHT TOP 10: 1. Wladimir Klitschko 2. Vitali Klitschko 3. Tomasz Adamek 4. Dereck Chisora 5. Alexander Povetkin 6. Marco Huck 7. Robert Helenius 8. Eddie Chambers 9. Chris Arreola 10. Ruslan Chageav Dimitrenko, Pulev, Solis, Thompson could all be there but it's tough. Tackleberry: 1. Wladimir Klitschko 2. Vitali Klitschko 3. Alexander Povetkin 4. Dereck Chisora 5. Tomasz Adamek 6. Tyson Fury 7. Robert Helenius 8. Marco Huck 9. Alexander Dimitrenko 10. Chris Arreola David B: 1. Wladimir Klitschko 2. Vitali Klitschko 3. David Haye 4. Dereck Chisora 5. Marco Huck 6.Tomasz Adamek 7. Alexander Povetkin 8. Tyson Fury 9. Robert Helenius 10. Eddie Chambers Chatty: 1. Wladimir Klitschko - no need to explain 2. Vitali Klitschko - no need to explain 3. Alexander Povetkin - next best although poor showing at weekend 4. Tomasz Adamek - disappeared since being destroyed of Vitali, no shame there and earlier work keeps him high on the list (for now) 5. Dereck Chisora - beating Helenius and a decent showing against Vitali skyrockets him, he may suffer though due to his pre-fight antcis 6. Robert Helenius - Lost to Chisora in most peoples eyes but has done enough to warrant a no6 ranking in a poor division 7. Eddie Chambers - suffers due to inactivity, needs to be in there with more contenders 8. Marco Huck - decent first fight, cant rank him any higher though as he has zero wins at the weight 9. Chris Arreola - fat 10. Tyson Fury - Chisora win looks better now but seems to be pissing about fighting no marks and oaps at the minute Kirk: 1 - Wladimir Klitschko 2 - Vitali Klitschko 3 - Alexander Povetkin (I dont want to rate him here, but wins over a good chambers, a faded chagaev, and a 'win' over Huck, with nobody else having done quite that much, he gets there by default, despite me thinking he would lose to plenty of the fighters ranked below him) 4 - Dereck Chisora (I have him here for beating helenius, giving Vitali fits, and that I think he would beat most of the people below him head to head) 5 - Eddie Chambers (Hes beat peter and dimitrenko, and I think he would give anyone trouble outside of the klits head to head) 6 - Robert Helenius ( wins over a faded Brewster n Peter keep him at 6 ) 7 - Marco Huck (he arguably beat povetkin arccording to many, and with povetkin being number 3, it gives Huck a good position to start off his heavyweight campaign) 8 - Tyson Fury (I dont want to rate him here, but he has beaten my number 4 guy, even if he was woefully out of shape for the fight (chisora was by far and away his highest weight, while fury was in his best shape) He beats out Adamek because.... A: I think he beats adamek head to head due to his size and B: His best win at heavy is better imo, then adameks. And adamek has no other heavyweight win to really compensate for that. imo. 9 - Tomasz Adamek ( his lone real notable win is arreola, one who's not in my top 10. I believe that besides huck, up till this point in the rankings adamekis the only one without a win against a top 10 guy (my rankings) so with that, how badly I feel he does against 90% of his peers head to head, and how badly he was disposed of when he fought the best, I can rank him no higher at the moment. ) and I really dont know who I should put at 10.... its a complete toss up for me, Im going to go with 10 - Denis Boytsov.... just for being impressive inside the ring so far despite his comp, and how I think he would do head to head against most of the guys on this list. Official List ( Based off current kirkster lists ): TBD
Super Champ: Valuev Champ: Wlad 1. Vitali 2. Povetkin 3. Chisora 4. Adamek 5. Fury 6. Helenius 7. Huck 8. Dimitrenko 9. Arreola 10. Thompson something like that anyway. 8.
It does amaze me the extended arguments he'll get into, though. I don't come to an agreement or agreement to disagree within five comments at most and they can sod right off. You're a good man, Tack. :deal I've always said that.

1 - Wlad Klit 2 - Vit Klit 3 - Povetkin (I dont want to rate him here, but wins over a good chambers, a faded chagaev, and a 'win' over Huck, with nobody else having done quite that much, he gets there by default, despite me thinking he would lose to plenty of the fighters ranked below him) 4 - Chisora (I have him here for beating helenius, giving Vitali fits, and that I think he would beat most of the people below him head to head) 5 - Chambers (Hes beat peter and dimitrenko, and I think he would give anyone trouble outside of the klits head to head) 6 - Helenius ( wins over a faded Brewster n Peter keep him at 6 ) 7 - Huck (he arguably beat povetkin arccording to many, and with povetkin being number 3, it gives Huck a good position to start off his heavyweight campaign) 8 - Fury (I dont want to rate him here, but he has beaten my number 4 guy, even if he was woefully out of shape for the fight (chisora was by far and away his highest weight, while fury was in his best shape) He beats out Adamek because....

But since hes 'officially' retired, I have him unranked.

Once I move up one more position to 14th Ill be back in the spot where I have sat for pretty much 3 years straight (other than a good run at the end of last year) I suppose at least I'm consistent.
