This whole thred depends on how big an impact we are talking about, i wouldn't pick any to beat Mayweather, Mosley or Pac.
Hatton has already been a WW champion,
Alexander and Bradley would beat most other WW fighters, maybe Berto would win but would be close,
Kahn is young and has the frame to move up eventually,
Maidana has the power to hurt anyone but I have only really watched the Ortiz fight so I can't talk much about him,
Malignaggi gave Cotto a good fight and i think could handle most WW power but will not knock any of them out,
This is why I voted all of them, but as I said none of them will beat the big 3 but could make a big enough impact to win some belts at WW
Haye beating Klitschko because it really shakes things up as who is th best at that weight and finally sets up a fight where all the belts are on the line vs Vitali, heavyweight is such a prestigious weight but there hasnt been a true undestputed champion since Lewis, so its the biggest deal, the least likely to happen is either Green or Cintron IMO

The thing is whenever people don't lose it is because of bad opposition, if the Klitchko's fought each other say 3 times Wlad won 1 Vitali won 2 they would both be classed as ATG and the era of boxing would actually be quite good, as this isn't going to happen they need another champion to stay at the top and fight each other for a few fights eg. Ali - Frazier, Lewis - Holyfield.
Yeah them 2 are making people believe that the heavyweight is about speed rather than size, I really like Haye but I do think the K bros are a step 2 far, i do want him to win though, i would say the HW is the 4th best at the moment, 1:WW 2.JW 3.SM, any dissagreements?
Victor Terrazas is getting to England from Mexico for friday, if he can manage that then Froch will get to Denamark, but unfortunatly its the fans that where going to travel over that may suffer
Haye and Wlad just don't like each other, that's the only fight, the fight will never happen if Haye loses to Vitali so lets make it happen now, if Haye beats Wlad we will definitely see Haye Vitali soon after, but if he loses to Wlad at least the score is settled between them 2
Why is this thread here? these terms do not count any more as Haye is now a champ and has more bargaining power, interesting fact about never losing to an eastern European, just make this fight happen, Povetkin is gonna keep on dodging till he fights Peter for a world title, hopefully Haye is right and his speed and power beats Wlad, probably take on Povetkin in a mandatory and then Vitali for a huge, huge fight
Let it go Carl, why are none of ur comments about your opponents, i can understand trash talking your opponents to get you motivated and to get them anoyed and off their game, but why are u trash talking a retired boxer that even if he came out of retirement you can not fight because you have the supper 6, stop using Calzaghe's name to get forums talking about you!!!
Haye would beat every other heavyweight out there IMO, the reason he has got a title and looks like he will get a shot at the Klitchko's quite soon is because the the division is so weak, not saying Haye would beat the Klitchko's although I think he has a chance, but he is at least the 3rd best in the HW division
I am surprised no one has Nonito Donaire on here, quality little fighter with good wins on his resume, i would agree with your origional list but replace Williams for Donaire because Williams needs to dominate one division and getting a few belts b4 being up there p4p wise
Rebecca Romero, British athlete won gold in Athens at rowing 4 years later wins gold in Beijing at cycling, 2 completely different sports, and to achieve the pinicle of the 2 sports 4 years apart is amazing, anyone else done that?
Below lightweight there are only two Americans worth anything the WBa title holder at Jr. Flyweight Giovani Segura who would lose to Calderon and Yonnhy Perez who would lose to Montiel IMO
That's pretty far in favour of the rest of the world..
Any one disagree? Does any one think an American has a chance below 135??
I think Martinez would put it on Williams in a rematch.
But I also think Ward would beat Bute. Otherwise I agree with what you have.
I think the Martinez Williams match is a close one, what weight class should it be though?
I do understand Ademek is from Poland, and Cintron is from Puerto Rico, but the ring had them both as USA, I will change Ademek to Chambers but who should i change Cintron to? Is Foreman from Israel?
what about pavlik ,you have no faith in your all american boy?:usa:
peterson is overrated by the way.
I have no faith that he is better than Williams, and I can see where u are coming from with Peterson, thats why I have Marquez winning, but I couldn't think of a American better than Peterson
Im sorry Cintron vs Cotto? wut who is the American in this 1
I thought Cintron was American, I have Cotto as the ROTW fighter, who would you replace Cintron for?
Vitali would do fine, not dominate, but his size and skills and will to fight would give him a good shot against any HW at any time, Wlad will never have his brothers chin a young fearless Tyson would spark him out, and many other prime HW would as well, Vitali top 10 all time Wlad top 25
Calzaghe beat him so bad last time this is a fight not worth watching, if hopkins got injured today Calzaghe would beat Jones this weekend, as long as las vegas didnt ask for a drugs test
Solis and peter are both fat and slow, Haye smashes them to pieces, I also reckon Valuev beats them 2, Vitali may be to high a step up for Haye, but if his defense improves from he ruiz fight he has the power to hurt Wlad
Like or dislike Froch, you must admit he chases the big names, he always wanted Calzaghe, he took on these north americans, he signed up for super 6, trust me, if he wins it he will go for a unification fight with Bute, but tough couple of fights first!!!
Possibly taking this fight lighter than the vluev one, but thats because he's not gonna run from Ruiz like he did Valuev, however trust me Haye will look good for the weigh in and will win this fight from 8-12 KO, then we will see prime Haye vs either Klitschko, no matter what that twat frank warren says about his contact with sauerland having a re-match with Valuev next
What an undercard, I have always said sky and Warren are not very good at doing world class events, but know how to handle domestic fights, as far as getting the British public intrested this is a really good event, I think the seats will be filled early on for this one. All the way down the bill the casual British boxing fan would have herd of most of these boxers!!
