The Rhino has got to fight a few of the following guys before he's ready for a title shot: Oleg Maskaev, David Izon, Derrick Jefferson, Obed Sullivan, one of the Klitschko Bros. (no, not both at the same time), Hasim Rahman, Kirk Johnson.

He'd walk through Orlin Norris, Chris Byrd, Franz Botha, John Ruiz...and Evander Holyfield...virtually unopposed.

I think he has a great shot against Tyson and Lewis, too, when the time comes.

I'm positive he'd beat Tua, too, although Tua's next fight will be against Butterbean, where, progressing at this rate, Dave will weigh in at a trim 300 lbs and throw at a rate of, er, 2 rounds per punch.

From my eyeballing of the rankings - now that Tua has had, and blown, his shot, the next mandatory challengers look to come in this order:

1. Wladimir Klitschko
2. Mike Tyson
3. Larry Donald

with Kirk Johnson and Vitaly Klitschko soon thereafter.
