I have lately been focusing on my other blog, and neglecting boxing. I am going to attempt to get back into boxing over the next few weeks. Some good fights are coming up, and I will be talking about those. Most importantly, though, I’m planning to significantly step up my 178 Greatest Heavyweights countdown. I’m… Read More 178 Greatest Heavyweights Index update

Chris Byrd’s attempt at rejuvenating his career by dropping two weight classes met with failure Friday night in Las Vegas.

Reposted from Blogger Top Ten Heavyweights, 12/29/07 – December 29, 2007 I haven’t done a top ten list in a few months. However, not much has changed in the heavyweight division, especially in the top 5. Wlad is still number 1, but hasn’t fought since July. Maskaev and Peter have yet to get it on. A lot… Read More Repost – Blogger – December 29, 2007 – Top Ten Heavyweights, 12/29/07

Wladimir Klitschko – Four of his last five victories have been over Ring-ranked top ten opponents. His recent domination of Lamon Brewster added to this impressive streak. Wlad is clearly head and shoulders above the rest of the division. (Ranked #1 on 04/27 list) 2.)… Read More Repost – Blogger – July 23, 2007 – Top Ten Heavyweights as of 07/18/2007

Wladimir Klitschko (IBF Champion) – With none of the other titleholders available, Wlad decided to take the toughest possible fight in Lamon Brewster. Brewster may be rusty, but he’s still relatively young (for a heavy), hits like he has bricks in his gloves, and… Read More Repost – Blogger – February 27, 2007 – Top Ten Heavyweights as of 04/27/07

I’m quite confident many boxing fans are getting tired of reading about Wladimir Klitschko.

He is and probably always will be vulnerable, but for now he’s number 1. He should handle Ray Austin fairly easily in March.2.) Samuel Peter – One legitimate and… Read More Repost – Blogger – February 15, 2007 – Top Ten Heavyweights as of 02/15/07
