    Adamek ranked number 3 at heavyweight?

    Ahead of David Haye?

    Anyone with eyes knows that Haye ko's Adamek in which ever round he chooses, with what ever shot he choses,

    Haye has one win post-comeback over an unranked HW. I think we need to ease off on the gallop to top three.

    They have gone a little crazy, and I once held them in high regards.

    The firing of long time staff members to trying to tell me there's no #1 fighter in the world. :!:

    It lost credibility the moment it started to feature semi naked Ring girls.(not that i'm a homo i might add)
    Also what happened to Jeff Ryan?

    yes it has

    putting Haye at #4 because he beat an unranked guy with a record of 1-3 record in his last 4 fights

    Yeah that's all very well and good but Derek Chisora on a losing streak is still a more credible opponent than most of the more "highly ranked" HW's out there.

    Win over guy who lost to Tyson Fury is not even good.

    Fury/Haye, make it happen!

    those top guys would be considered much more credible if they fought each other, but doesn't look like it's going to happen in the near future

    lets face it.adamaks resume is better than hayes..hayes best win at heavyweight is.
    1.valuev
    2.ruiz
    3.chisora
    4.barret
    5.audley
    6.bonin and a wladimir loss

    adamaks
    1.chambers (although we all know chambers one wth one arm)but this win alone trumps anything haye has done.
    2.arreolla (again is better than any win on hayes resume)
    3.micheal grant
    4.aguilara
    5.estrada
    6.maddalone
    7.mcbride (tyson beater lol)
    8.golota

    and has a loss to vitali and is pencilled in to be fighting ustinov..so for the love of god stop trying to say haye deserves to be ranked higher when he clearly dosnt...

    but head to head haye ****s adamak up..only difference is haye wouldnt take it and adamak would..

    Anyone with two eyes can see that Haye is a better fighter than Adamek. If the two fought, every staff member at Ring Magazine would pick Haye. It's nice that they have the divisional rankings, but don't put too much stock into it. Adamek and Haye are both considered top HWs, that's the important thing to know.

    Maybe he should fight him then or perhaps even any top 10 heavyweight.
