Soft Heavyweights

..........he's one of the ones I'm talking about

Lance would be a shit boxer i imagine, unless he could crack someone with his bike

I don't care whether this thread appears "gay" or not, I'll take any chance to slam this FAGGED-DOWN division, & am always happy to see others who hate it as well.

They are boxers, not body builders. Alot of people don't have that type of body. I know people that are built, but have never even worked out. I've seen ripped fighters that weren't worth a shit too. Ali was not always ripped, he had more of a lean, smooth body. Ripped muscle mass can actually hinder a fighter. I think alot of fighters become too large. Holyfield was a much better fighter when he fought at 212 lbs. The heavier he got, the slower and less energetic he became. Same goes for Tyson. He was most effective when he weighed 218 lbs. When he came into the Lennox Lewis fight at 230 lbs, I knew he was doomed. Being in shape, and looking to be in shape are two different things altogether. Let me ask you a question: Do you think Lance Armstrong would be a good boxer? Very true, not disputing that, but I was refering to prime holyfield and prime tyson, when their muscle didn't get in the way. But today's heavy's? I mean, come on man, LEAN AND FLAT are 2 different things. Boxers don't have muscles like bodybuilders, I understand that completely, but do they have to look like springer guests? I'm just saying that, people that go over 230 are generally worthless to watch, compared to fighters before this era. The just stand their, catching a 1-2, or throwing a 1-2. Rockem sockem is not fun to me, I just wish they had a division of 201-230 pounders so I could see TALENT again. Any guy with a gut and a heavy bag seems to be in title contension these days, it's disgusting to me. Now some fighters I understand can't help their weight cause of their height, like The Klits. They are solid, but are usually above 240, that's fine, but they still breathe heavy after a few rounds. My point is, I believe if you're over 230, another dision should be made for you, that way I don't have to watch 220's vs. 260's like bowe's last fight, what a joke. And as for lance.....he did box, remember the commercial where they superimposed his body onto a knockout clip!?

That is the gayest shit ever typed on an internet forum. Very true......................I might just be one of those homos.................lock the doors

toney's really soft, and hes won titles in 4 weight classes!

Is it just me, or is it really getting annoying for men that don't have that great of a body to hold titles, or fight for them period? That is the gayest shit ever typed on an internet forum. Never pay again for live sex! | Hot girls doing naughty stuff for free! | Chat for free!

Good stuff. Not only do the soft-bodies show me a lack of gym-time, the low skill-level does as well.
