[Barry Halls]

Between povetkin and solis in my opinion. (in terms of ability)

Too bad Povetkin seems to be mismanaged.

[Evil Abed]

Adamek.

After he gets destroyed Povetkin or The Nordiac Nightmare.

Evander Holyfield

[!!Captain]

Boytsov needs to recover from his surgeries and get to top 20 already. He's got potential, he just needs to be more active against better opposition. As of now though, Chambers is 3rd.

[PD21]

Helenius or Povetkin.

I would say Adamek but in a couple weeks he wont be in the picture anymore.
David Haye and Solis shamed themselves against the Klitschkos and didnt earn another chance given their effort.

Holyfield is still my favourite of the bunch though.

[Money Shot]

Helenius is currently the most dangerous looking challenger, but Adamek is the clear #3.

[Grinderman]

Adamek, followed by Helenius.

David Haye? Gimme a break.

[Dubblechin]

At this very moment, I'd say the third-best heavyweight is Helenius. Not only is he the most dangerous contender, he's arguably beaten better heavyweights than Tomasz Adamek has. (Although, Adamek has faced better quality opposition over three divisions.)

Head-to-head, I would take Helenius over Adamek right now, as well.

So I voted for Helenius.

I'd love to see Adamek fight Povetkin. That's a toss-up.

[TheGreatA]

Povetkin although that will change very suddenly if he takes the route of fighting Holyfield and Rahman. He has wins over two top 10 ranked heavyweights and is currently undefeated.
