Battle for Supremacy

it seems that most of the top ten hws could beat one another or run em close..nicely competitive and great for forum debates like this :cool:

Where does King get that Rahman is now Vitali's mandatory? Boxrec has it listed for the IBF #2 spot, and I thought that Beck/Barrett vs. Toney was for the #1 WBC spot. I was thinking that this fight had WBO and WBA implications. Then Michael Buffer announced it as a WBC/IBF eliminator. That covers the big 4...

do you think any of these fight really help sort out the heavyweight division or does it make just more confusion? We now know that Rahman's still a contender, Meehan's a pretender, Brewster's a ridiculous champion who will not hold the belt very much longer, Holyfield's done, McCline bought himself some more time in the top of the ranks, Golota still needs a major win before another shot So, yeah, it sorted things out a little bit. But until champions fight champions, all it does is change the pecking order for alphabet title shots.
