    P4P Heavyweights?

    It's been a long time since a heavyweight was ranked in the p4p rankings. Do you guys think we'll ever have another heavyweight make his way in to the p4p top ten? Are any of them good enough?

    lennox was not too long ago.

    i feel i should always have 1 heavyweight on my top 10 p4p. i mean they fight everyone from 201 lbs. to 300 plus for god's sake.

    wlad is #10 on my list because of my own personal rule.

      Considering he's won 9 in a row, and 6 championship fights, I don't feel like it's a stretch to have him at number 10.
      All the guys he fought had pretty good records and were names in this lackluster division.
      But Ray Austin. How the hell did he get ranked?

        of the current crop i think Haye could do if he lives up to his hype

        and i'm sure at some point in the future there will be more great heavyweights...

          Lennox was about 5 years ago so its been a while.

          I agree with your rule, and don't feel its to much of a reach to place wlad at 10. I'm not Wlad's biggest fan, he looks impressive and on paper looks like a great fighter but his fights are to boring for me. He has achieved a lot despite earlier setbacks in his career though!

              Yeah, it's true to an extent. I think Tua's draw with Rahman and his legal troubles set him back from that point on.

              The earlier loss to Byrd certainly didn't help but he had some good wins up until 2003 (Moorer and who was the other dude?)

              He certainly didn't do himself any favors by pricing himself out of the Arreola fight.

              Seems like now, he's just payday hunting since he's had about 10 straight tune ups.

                he should've skipped byrd. i know it was an ibf eliminator but **** it. holy got to fight for the ibf belt and he wasn't even part of the eliminator.

                tua was top 10 for 8 straight years. you'd think he'd have gotten more than 1 shot......

                i'm very bitter.......
