    You're right of course. The Klitschko's rule the division with supremacy. Two of the best HWs the world ever saw.

      I voted for Arreola. I know many will disagree with this and Arreola is far from the best skill wise, but if there's one Americano who can take the fight to Wlad and give him a test, it's the Nightmare. The others will be executed as per usual by Wladimir.

        Nothing wrong with being #3 behind the Klitschkos, mate.

          Dude get your big brown nose out of their arses. You don't have reiterate the same thing in every thread. "Two of the best heavyweights..." No they are not you nuthugger!

          On topic, Malik Scott easy. Anybody saying otherwise don't know wtf they're talking about.

            It depends on what Wilder is like in the defense department. I'd say he's the best if he is capable of avoiding/taking a punch.

              But you have to wonder why they are being so careful with him. He's coming out of the Olympics with a medal, big promoter and has 27 fights against nobodies. Look at Fury, Price, Pulev, Helenius, Chisora, hell even Malik Scott. They are fighting better fighters and they have less fights. My best guess is Wilder has no chin.

                i'm telling you now Wilder has no chin.

                If Harrison actually throws a few punches wilder might get sparked

                my guess is Audrey will freeze and get stopped, but Wilder isn't going much further, he's getting to the point when opponents hit back now, and will end up another David Price.

                  Best American HW? The guy that Flintoff beat in his debut

                  On a serious note probably Malik Scott. Amir Mansour has impressed me for years & I'm not one to play on age but he really is getting on up there with age, hopefully he can make some noise and hasn't left it too late.

                    Man, Arreola lost to Adamek, who should have lost to Steve Cunningham.

                    There was a really, really brief period where he might have been the best American heavyweight by default, but he definitely isn't anymore.

                      I would like to say Malik Scott, but I'm going to have to probably agree with this. TT could/would probably KO most of those guys.

                      With the experience he got fighting Wlad; I think he could give all of those young guns a run for their money.
