    your right about Chagaev im gonna drop him lower.

    No way Scott is top 15. He has one win from last night (scored a draw) that was against a non top 15 fighter. thats it.

    Because the only vague argument to place Haye over Povetkin is something ridiculous like "becuase Haye beats him head to head". CV wise recent and all together puts Povetkin clearly ahead of Haye.

    What a load of nonsense. A near shut out defeat counts as one of Haye's high points? This doesn't even deserve a proper rebuttal.

    A 12 round loss to Wladamir Klitscko is better than win over Estrada and Rahman in my opinion.

    Right. So all Povetkin has to do is get KO'd by Wladimir in the summer to overtake Haye.
     
  8. Solis? Helenius? Chagaev??

    Who makes those lists?? :-((

    Many people did have Glazkov in their top 15, and the fact it was scored a draw is irrelevant, he clearly won.

    How many of your top 15 actually have wins over top 15 fighters? Arreola, who you rank at #6, has not beaten anyone near Glazkov's class. Nor has Solis.

    No because that would be worse than Hayes UD Loss. Povetkin needs to beat more top 15 ranked fighters in impressive fashion.

    Ruiz, Valuev and Chisora were all top 15 when Haye beat them. Povetkin has only beaten Chagaev in the last 5 years.

    Chisora top 15? In what exactly? The Chisora scalp is on par with Povetkin's over Boswell at best.

    nope. Chisora was coming of a win over Helenius and he was highly competitive vs Vitali. Haye beat him up and stopped him in 5.

    That didn't answer my question. Where was he ranked top 15 by anybody? You seem to have also missed out where he got the **** beat out of him by the fat, alcoholic, novice version of Tyson Fury.

    "Highly competitive vs Vitali". Is Wach top 10 as well then for his performance against the actual champ?
