Teper looked like trash. I'm pretty sure he's not legitimately one of the 15 best heavyweights.

[crusader]

I don't see what was poor about his performance. He's flabby but he looked fine to me.....he's not the most skilled but he's a physically strong fighter who is able to effectively bully opponents.

I think if Teper were to fight any quality operator in the top 25, he would be outgunned in punching technique, movement, power, and toughness. If Arreola is still in his prime, which he may not be, then he would break Teper in half.

You posted this in another thread.

I'd say that Price and Duhaupas were or are roughly top 25 fighters. I also don't see how top 25 HWs (per BoxRec) like Glazkov, Cunningham, Szpilka, Jennings, Thompson, Tarver, Hammer, or Scott outgun him in power (he's scored some nice KTFOs), and what indications are there that he lacks toughness for a top 25 fighter?

[keirw]

Teper to 14th, Price unranked (and probably retired).
Arreola out (probably for good), Khassi unranked.

[tiny_acres]

Are we next voting on Chisora after his win by knock out????

[Lennox]

No one would surely think Chisora's position should be changed on the basis of last nights fight. Would they?

I actually want to vote him out.That is why I am wanting a vote
