LOL at that Fraudley video.

My list
1) Wlad
2) Vitali
3) Povetkin
4) Adamek
5) Haye
6) Helenius
7) Chambers
8) Thompson
9) Dimitrenko
10) Chagaev

I still got Chagaev in there at 10, but sure a case can be made for Arreola and Solis being #10. Tough call.

I can see some debate on who deserves to be #3 (Povetkin or Adamek) but I'll give it to Povetkin on the basis of his resume, despite Adamek's prodigious accomplishments in lower weight classes.

Just for kicks, here's 11-20
11) Solis
12) Arreola
13) Gomez
14) Pulev
15) Lawrence
16) Boswell
17) Ustinov
18) Fury
19) Mormeck
20) Peter

Honorable mention to Stiverne, Chisora, Holy, Ibragimov, and Boystov.

Wlad is the champion of paper...

 

Cuban hardhitter Mike Perez should be in top 10

 

I'v listed some of their wins in the last 2 years to help explain the rankings after the top 4. I realize how high Pulev is but based on wins i think that's where he belongs.

Undisputed Champion : Vova
1: Vitali
2: Adamek
3: Povetkin
4: Helenius - Liakhovich, Peter, Tony, Levin, Oloukun, Brewster
5: Pulev - Rossy, Skelton, Vidoz, Guinn, Batcherfield (fighting Rogan next)
6: Thompson - Witherspoon, Beck, Harris
7: Chambers - Rossy, Dimitrenko
8: Arreola - Aguilera, Ahunaya, Quezada
9: Chagaev - Meehan, Walker
10: Dimitrenko - Sosnowski

you could argue Haye at 10 and his wins over Ruiz being better than Dimitrenko's over Sosnowski.

lol for beating Tye Fields, no.

 

Most of those names are well past it. And the win against Rossy shouldn't count as a real win due to the dodgy stoppage.

Haye's recent wins (Mormeck, SNV, Ruiz, Barrett, Fraudely) ought to be sufficient to earn him 4th or 5th place on your list.

 

I'd base my list on a combination of resume and head-head match ups.

1 Wlad
2 Vitali
3 Povetkin
4 Chambers
5 Haye
6 Adamek
7 Helenius
8 Arreola
9 Thompson
10 Chagaev

No he's the champion of the heavyweights.

The list of number 1 ranked heavyweights since clay beat liston reads:

Clay.

frazier-foreman-ali-norton-holmes-spinks-holmes.

Tyson-douglas-holyfield-bowe-holyfield-moorer-foreman.

Tyson-holyfield-lewis.

Vitali.

Byrd.

Wlad...

Wlad has been universally recognised as number 1 since beating byrd. In the mean time he's unified 4 of the 5 belts with the final holder being his brother who has said he'll never fight him.
