    Decent list - Never heard of number 5 or 8 :S

    Who are they?

    And I'm interested why you have Povetkin at Number 3... As opposed to a couple of spaces lower...

    Chakhiev is monster puncher with "face first" defence skills.

    Huck is cruiserweight and garbage too. Also he lost to Povetkin clearly even though he was punching behind the head for the whole fight.

    Huck rocked Povetkin 3 or 4 times and Povetkin was holding on and leaning forward all night waiting for the ref to save him.
    Huck won at least 7 rounds in that fight. Exposed Povetkin as just a fat,pink skinned, drunk,mentally weak and unstable Russian slob.

    Wlad and Vitali are champs so I wont include them.

    #1 Tyson Fury
    #2 Dereck Chisora
    #3 Kubrat Pulev
    #4 Kevin Johnson
    #5 Eddie Chambers
    #6 Chris Arreola
    #7 Tomasz Adamek
    #8 Bryant Jennings
    #9 Seth Mitchell
    #10 Marco Huck

    Other guys to look for: Odlanier Solis,Chauncy Welliver,Andy Ruiz and Maurice Byarm*

    *Byarm is gonna enter in as an official prospect with his upset win over Magomed in a few weeks.

    Andy Ruiz Jr is a great prospect. he's been steadily losing weight so hopefully he keeps it up.

    So? Haye and Adamek also were a few years ago and now everybody would have at least one in their list. It's not a huge deal for an elite level CW to step up and deal with the heavies.
