Rating The Heavyweights - After Saturday's Shake-Up, Today's Top-Ten

chagaev(Ruslan Chagaev, pictured on left, in between rounds of his bout with Nikolay Valuev) 17.04.07 - By James Slater: We saw an upset in the heavyweight division this past Saturday, yet another one. Is there not one big guy out there that can capture a world title and the defend it consistently? Well, maybe Wladimir Klitschko can. We will see. Still, more than a few fans were starting to worry out loud how Nicolai Valuev, all seven foot two of him, just might do this and break the most famous record in boxing history in the process. Now, however, as a result of southpaw Ruslan Chagaev's points win at the weekend, all Rocky Marciano's fans can relax. "The Beast From The East" was a fighter considered by many to have a long reign. Yet now he is just another former champion. So, who are the ten best in the world at heavyweight right now?

1. Wladimir Klitschko. IBF Champ.
Nickname: "Dr. Steel Hammer." Record: 48-3 (43) Last Fight: Won KO 2 Ray Austin. continue
