Which year had the worse champions?

WBC: Frank Bruno
2004
IBF: Chris Byrd
WBA: John Ruiz
WBC: Vitali Klitschko
No not really, but he was the linear champ which does mean something to me, but then again the fact that Foreman ducked Axel Schulz really hurts him.
Well George was hunting that Tyson fight at that time and I guess he didn't want to risk losing the title in the rematch. However I think it's really out of order when a boxing organisation puts the judges in and then when they think that there judges didn't do the right thing they then expect the fighter to have to do it all over again. I say fukc them they got the judges live with the pick.
He was recognised as the Ring magazines Heavyweight Champion though. I thought that meant something to you.

95 in every division are worse, certainly the WBC. Vitaly would easily beat bruno, ruiz would outfox seldon and Byrd is a way too smart boxer to lose to Botha
Who cares about those stupid alphabet titles?
Unlike today where there is no true world champion, back then we had one universally recognized world heavyweight champion by the name of George Foreman. For that reason alone, 1995 had the better champion.
Very well said.
95 was worse, all of the fighters today ...theyre not bad theyre just not that entertaining escpecially ruiz lol
I totally agree with you based on the fighters listed.
Except for the fact that Foreman didn't have a major belt when all of those three had belts in 1995.

95 is laughable. we think we have it rough right now ,damn it was pathetic in 95. hopefully though we can have some good prospects like in 95 so it doesnt get worse.

I'm 35 years old, buddy.
I'm telling you now, your obsession with weightlifting is gonna make your "pro" career a disastrous one.
You're gonna be too busy worrying about muscles sticking out of your thighs, while some other dude is busy working on HOW TO FIGHT, & his BOXING endurance.
Dude.....You need to get out of the boxing forums & into another one for BODY BUILDERS.
Who cares if Seldon & Bruno were chiseled ? They were both FRAGILE.
What the hell does the way their bodies looked have to do with anything ?

too close ..cuz seldon and bruno was beasts... what they lacked in ruiz and bryd skills they made up for in size and conditioning..6'3 247 and 6'1 233 and both were chizzled.. but white buffalo suck
