You said last week that you considered Vitali #4/#5 at this stage of his career. So how would him or Haye retiring affect your #2?

No announcement yet.
With both Vitali and Haye likely retiring, who is the second best heavyweight now?

"He looked faded against Chisora and Charr and so may no longer be the H2H second best HW"
But that's my view, most people still consider him #2 and Haye #3.

Vitali is fading with age, his two opponents in 2012 weren't very good defensively yet he had trouble hitting them. Haye has one win in two years, over an opponent who had lost three of his previous four fights.
David Price, Kubrat Pulev and Tyson Fury looked very good in their last fights. It's very likely one of those three, but it's not clear which one yet. And there are several others moving up.
As Dan Rafael said in his chat yesterday, it will be an interesting year for the heavyweight division.

pulev and chambers.
both are yet to live up to their potential, though.
chambers is out of shape, and really only a cruiserweight. and pulev was an amateur for a long time and is only recently stepping up as a pro.
