    So who's the best of the three? Yes, I realize you probably hate both Haye and Johnson. I can sympathize . But I'm not interested in that. I want to know who would win in a three-way eliminator. Boxing fans only please. No trolls or haters.

    I think Johnson outboxes Arreola all night and wins a wide decision. Not sure about Haye in either match-up. Have only seen him fight once and it wasn't his best performance. Atleast, I hope it wasn't.

    Arreola makes both of them more than they want to. I see Cris taking them both.

    Who's the best fighter? Sadly, Haye.

    Best amateur background, accomplished most as a pro.

    Haye is the best of those fighters. Easily.

    what a bad question!

    what's your next one - who's the better fighter, danny williams or lennox lewis?

    haye would knock the pair of then out on the same night. arreola would beat johnson, though. he truly is a **** poor excuse for a fighter.

    Haye would probably take this. Johnson is good at beating bums, he loses to both Haye and Arreola easily. Haye probably outboxes Arreola from the outside with Chris trying to chase Haye around all night with limited success.

    That said, Arreola is easily the one who deserves to get title shots vs the Klitschkos, and the one who always brings it and makes for exciting fights. He may be worse in the skill department than both Haye and Johnson, but when he fights you always know you're in for an exciting fight.

    you thought the one sided beating he took from vitali was exciting? each to their own.

    Haye, though Arreola could probably tag him.

    As much as I admire Adamek's courage, I don't think he should be campaigning at heavyweight. I felt that way after Cunningham was able to floor him. And yes, he beat a very heavy Arreola. But my memory of that fight is similar to Round 1 of Pac/Hatton. Just like Ricky was on the edge of disaster for that entire three minutes, I also felt Adamek was one good punch away from being knocked out. The Adamek/Vitali fight was downright depressing. It was like watching Mayweather/Gatti for me.

    All the guys picking Haye, what are you basing it on? I already admitted that he is a big unknown to me. I am just looking at his record at HW. He beat Barrett. Ok. Barrett's a good gatekeeper but I think Johnson and Arreola also beat Barrett. Arreola beat McCline who is rather similar to Monte. Haye beat Valuev. Didn't see that fight but if it was the same Valuev that showed up against Holyfield, I'd say Johnson and Arreola take him as well. And Harrison?... Well just educate me.
