Who will rule HW division 5 years from now?

We should be able to make accurate predictions at this point.

Please state your opinion.

That's pretty far out to predict.

Bird will be gone.
Ruiz will be gone.
Rahman will be gone.
Toney will be gone.
Wlad will Probably fight for a title and have a couple more fights before retiring, unless Vitali comes back.
I don't think Brewster will still be in the picture in five years.

Sam Peter should be involved. And perhapes Eddie Chambers or Alexander Dimitrenko.

I think he's probably an unknown at this point.

ha-ha... a good one

Thats tough too say, but I think that Sam Peter maybe in the mix, if he keeps postively progressing.

Wladimir Klitschko could definetly be in the mix, and he may hold several titles by that point.

Calvin Brock has a chance, but he looks fairly average too me. He does everything well but not great, but he's only thirty.

I think the dark horse that may make an impact and one whom I have been fairly impressed with is Sultan Ibragimov. He's got good skills and power and hes only 30 years old. Plus hes undefeated.

Other names, Chagaev, Dimentrenko, Witherspoon, Chambers, and Greenburg.

Wlad will be exposed by then. Calvin Brock might be someone to look out for!

I don't know. The new, cautious Wlad may just steal a belt or two for a little while. He won't be a thrill to watch but I think he will take a few UDs. Brock was a little over-hyped and is now more realistically viewed as a solid but uninspiring boxer. I don't know about Peter. I have a su****ion that he is the next ten year's David Tua. Upsets, knockdowns but no real dominance. Great chin, great power but may never move past his two dimensional skills.
Wlad without serious testing may lurk and hold on for 5 years but I can't add to CITA's list of up and comers. They 'should' be the future but who knows. I too am favoring Sultan Ibragimov right now but have only seen highlights of his fights.

[monkeyboy]

Actually, brother Timor Ibrigamov should be on the list as an outside chance too. Sultan is far more justifiable though.

[leff]

well

rahman will be gone

vk will be to old (if he comes back ore not)

toney will be gone

byrd will be gone

ruiz will be gone

valuv will be gone

brester will 37 and probably ready to retire

wlad will be on the decline at age 35

peter will 29 and probably a force in the division.

i think dimitrenko will be pretty good by than

[Leo Pradun]

Wlad will be exposed by then. Calvin Brock might be someone to look out for!

ahaha, he punches just like chris byrd not better...
