Deandre Savage is arguably the worst heavyweight ranking in the history of the sport.

Deandre Savage is arguably the worst heavyweight ranking in the history of the sport.

Remember Christopher Lovejoy ?

WBA Regular can only defend against top 15 ranked guys like a proper championship belt right?

WBA top 15:
1. Bakole
2. Fury
3. Hunter
4. Pero
5. Kabayel
6. Wardley
7. Pulev*
8. Zhang
9. Gassiev
10. Itauma
11. Chaney
12. Ortiz
13. Miller
14. Dychko
15. Savage

Realistically you're looking at Hunter, Pero, Wardley, Gassiev, Itauma, Chaney, Ortiz, Miller, Dychko or Savage. If it's a mandated defence then it might be in that order.

Pulev's record suggests he would prefer Pero, Chaney, Dychko or Savage.

Frank might pay a lot of money for Pulev to defend against Itauma.

I'd actually enjoy a Pulev vs Ortiz retirement fight. Two past it veterans.

Yea but any of the guys I mentioned would be gifted a ranking if they asked/paid….

[gregregegg]

Moses itamu should retire pulev next… I would also accept fisher, torrez jr, huni, Anderson, jalov, Adeley…. Ect

Would also accept canelo for the WBA regular heavyweight title freakshow….

I'd still be surprised if Pulev is beatable by Adeleye or Fisher.

I think at 44 he wouldent be able to hold em off. He does have a long lasting euro style, but I think those guys although not amazingly skilled are strong and fresh enough to just throw heat and eventually get him. But it wouldn’t be a garentee so a fun fight.

The risk reward is there with a “world title “

Trilogy fight with Chisora next for Pulev? Chance for Chisora to pick up a 'world' title of sorts at the end of his career...
