    I honestly can't think of ANY heavyweight that I think would be successful. Especially from the US. We are in the heavyweight dark-ages right now. The closest fighter to me would be David Haye and I think he has a suspect chin and lacks stamina.

      You should have left a spot for "to be announced" or "the next Mike Tyson". Chambers is the best fighter on the list, but I guessed that Arreola may have the best upside.

        Honestly Tunney: I havent got a clue. But for the sake of boxing I hope a champion emerges. Maybe the olympics will reveal some future HW-stars. I hope so. Boxing needs top-flight US heavies.

          I think Chris Arreola has what it takes to at least be a top contender.

          A young heavyweight who is underrated and usually overlooked is a powerful puncher by the name of Travis Walker.

            I agree with Scott, Arreola probably has the best upside but right now I think Chambers is the best American heavyweight.

                I should have put Alonzo Butler in that spot, although no one would have voted for him.

                  Currently I would say Jonathon Banks even though he is a cruiseweight.
