Who do u think is the best American heavy?

They aren't all garbage.

Arreola gets an unfair amount of attention though

 

Where`s Butterbean?

 

I think Thompson is H2H No.1

He will beat Toney, he has decent wins on his record and he gave Klitschko more trouble over all the rounds than most others. OK, he didnt knock him down, but he had the most landed punches on Klitschko by far of all Klitschko opponents. Thats a credible effort.

I think Thompson is still a little bit underrated. His awkward leftie style is not easy to handle. You must be a Klitschko to win against him clearly.

IMO Thompson has a real chance vs. anybody out there exc. the Klitschkos.

Give him Haye and you know what I mean.
With a good matchmaking Thompson is still good in the game.

Technically No.1 is Chambers. He needs some attitude and some pop. Better stamina training. He could be better than Chris Byrd was. Unfortunately the klitschkos are ruling right now and small men got a hard time. But he is quite young and if he doesnt fade within the next 3-4 years he can be a solid titleholder in 2012/2013 or so.

 

Sadly Arreola.

 

I picked Chambers too....

He's a defensive fighter which makes him come off as not the most fan friendly fighter.. But matched correctly, Chambers will give you a show... Somebody like Arreola, Eddie would counter all day and eventually beat Arreola to a bloody mess... He's gotten Chris Byrd comparisons.... but there's 2 differences... 1, he's not as elusive as Byrd even tho Chambers isn't the easiest guy to get a clean shot on and.... 2, he hits a bit harder... Ask Raphael Butler who might not be the most reliable source because he's been KO'd a few times in his career... But for a little guy, Eddie can punch... He rocked Povetkin early in that fight.... Alex was just good enough to come up with a way to switch it up so he can win... Arreola is definitely no Povetkin...

Toney, while good, is fat..... short.... fat... He tested positive for steroids after fighting DANNY BATCHELDER.... smh... and and did I mention, he was OUTBOXED by SAM PETER....While he did look average against Rahman in the return fight, I still didnt see enough for me to say, Toney is the best of the bunch or he's on his way to being a world champion...

Kingpin.... haven't seen much of him to judge.. But from the look of his record and everything, I wouldn't put him in this conversation.... He's on Solis level...

Others: Tony Thompson, Ray Austin, Chazz Witherspoon, Malik Scott, Brian Minto (lol, even tho he was competitive against Krasniqi), Jason Estrada, Donnell Holmes (lol), Travis Kaufmann...

Chambers is my pick...
