What about that Pianeta guy? Is he any good?
Some time ago I saw that there was only one "german" contender inside the boxrec top 20 heavyweight rankings. His name was Francesco Pianeta.
Then, a few weeks later, I couldn´t find him anymore. Then I figured out that he was suddenly listed as an Italian fighter? When and why did that happen? I think it was around the Albert Sosnowski fight.
Did the same thing happen with the Klitschkos? I remeber their first fights, had to be back in 96 or 97, they fought for Germany. Or am I wrong? They started their carreer here and fought for Germany. When they became successfull they switched to Ukraine.
Thats no offense at all, I was just curious about that.

 

sonsona?

 

so far i got USA

UK
Mexico

my rankings

 

He´s not that bad at all! But no champion-material IMO! If he would fight more aggressive and would more his hands go, than perhaps, but he´s way too passive. He´s Italian, but Sauerland wanted that he fights under German flag like any "German" fighters today, but he didn´t want that!

 

No Adamek?

You could also have Drozd at CW. I like Alekseev the most but anyways. Provodnikov has a very fun style to watch.

CW Frenkel was born in Ukraine.
LHW Definitely Uzelkov. He's mandatory for Shumenov's title and already KO'd Campillo in 2007. He's proven.
LMW definitely has to be Dzinziruk.
SMW maybe Tsypko instead
130 we'd draft Lomachenko and own everything :good
