    Isn't that the case with pretty much everybody out there?

    Solis has talent, I give you that. However I am suspicious of his chin

    I still say that, outside of Michael Spinks and Mike Tyson, that list beats the shit out of a lot of the crap that fought from 1980-1990........it's not even fucking close.

    Not really. Lots of guys can go 10 rounds. Lots can beat a legit guy without being top 10 material.

    I don't know of Solis having a chin problem, but if he does that would change things.

    I thought the exact same thing, Jake. I was waffling on putting Ibragimov in my top 10 at all. reminds me of how everyone put Vernon Forrest at the top of their p4p lists after he beat mosely(and then quietly removed him after Mayorga:laughing: )

    we see eye to eye on this. I try to make my rankings on who I would bet on in Vegas. I think Povetkin could beat almost every HW out right now(except the Klits). Like we have all said, after Wlad and Vitaly, its just a crap shoot.

    I disagree ..

    Overall the 80's and 90's had much better fighters ...

    IMO its possible Holyfield could beat Toney at this point in time ...
    Toney has slowed down so much since they last fought ..
