    David got a gift against a guy who should have lost NUMEROUS fights.

    Evander over Haye based on doing better against Valuev:deal

    :deal

    Haye hasn't done enough to be rated any higher than 5 based on resume

    Nobody CAN beat Chisora but Haye and the Klits.

    Did you not already know this?

    So you think Adamek beats Haye? Answer the question.

    Of course he doesn't. Haye should look for that fight and prove it though.

    So around 90% of the people here think Haye would KO Adamek.

    Yet, many people think Adamek should be rated higher. Based on a resume that was compiled years ago?

    Adamek's resume is simply better. I hate Adamek but it's the truth

    Modern boxing fan logic.

    Losing to top fighters competitively is far worse than beating endless strings of no hopers.

    I don't think Chisora is any great shakes personally, but his recent losses have all been against decent fighters, including a title fight and one where he was unlucky with a decision.

    That's why guys are so ****ing uncompetitive when they try to step up these days, as "fans" would rather fighters beat 10 cans in a row in the early rounds.

    That's how washed up guys like Briggs and Rahman keep getting shots. "he's in form, 8 wins in a row".

    It's ludicrous. You'd never get a fight like Ike v Tua these days because both guys wouldn't want to be "exposed" by losing.

    years ago as in 2-3 years ago?

    Adamek is better conditioned, has more ring IQ and more experience than Haye

    he would beat Haye if he came back down to around 215

    Haye's best win is a Valuev with back problems, Adamek has Arreola and Chambers on his plate, common sense he's got the better resume

    You can desperatly try to phrase things to the way they suit you all you want, but the very fact you have to go there shows what a stretch you need to make to jusitfy your own rankings.

    Rankings are subjective. No one really has to justify them, to be honest. I just find it utterly ridiculous that so many people say, based on what has happened recently, that Haye would KO Adamek... then turn around and rank Adamek ahead of him...
