What was the third best era for heavyweights?

[markusmod]

Emasculated the weakest era in heavyweight history? And had to tag team it to do it? Brilliant!! And the K's we're booted from American tv because of their low rating, not a single other reason. Wlad while effective was incredibly boring. And Vits fought the worst of the worst far more often than the best of the best.

Yeah, I remember at one point they had no fights in America for years

Are there benchmark's we can use to denote a boxing era?

Using decade dates doesn't seem to work.

How about . . .

Sullivan to Willard?

Dempsey to Tunney's retirement?

1930 to post war America?

Post war to Cassius Clay?

Ali to 1980?

1980 to Lewis?

Lewis to retirement?

Fury to now?

- -Decades easier for the mathematically misanthropic to categorize in units they can count on their prehensile feets.

Ex: The 70s goes from the fantastically great series of Ali/Frazier/Foreman/Norton into the WBC monkey biz of Tubby Lar who was still skinny then and the WBA chumps he ducked.

Look who learned how the quote button works.

- -Different platform, but U in soprano in any other platform is still soprano by any other name...Billy Shakes...

- -Squealing, emasculated Americano boxing fans no longer at the center of the heavyweight universe once the Soviet empire opened up have more important things to do like manscaping and cross dressing each other...priceless!

The Ks filled stadiums with plenty of Euros and Brits flocking to see their highly produced pre and post fight productions that sandwiched their main events. The Panic of 2020 has derailed the global economy, but the heir of Wlad, AJ is still the man with his own mint calling the shots. Fat Andy, bless him, had the best nanomoment in American boxing since Mike Tyson ruled his short era before Givens and King ruined him, what, decades ago? Maybe he can make a comeback, but he was the only American or Brit capable of stepping up to th scratch line in AJ's American debut.

Filling stadiums with Euro's doesn't eqaute to a great era. They were popular in Europe, no doubt. But they couldn't draw flys in America because they were boring to watch. Especially Wlad. And Vits wouldn't fight the best available fighters. It's no wonder no one would watch. I believe they were respected as good fighters, but why would anyone she'll out their hard earned cash to watch a boring fight, or have them fight second raters. On top of that another reason the era was horrible is because besides them it was a revolving door of top 10 fighters. No one could get any momentum because the contenders seldom fought one another.

And apparently makes points so well the throwaways make you run in a corner and mumble to yourself.

Anytime your old punk ass thinks you can warm up that tired brain enough to stutter out some boxing I'm here. Until then, you're a old manbaby casting insults because you're too ****** to think of a half decent counterpoint.

- -Punch by punch emasculating you and yours ain't never gonna be popular with the emasculated. Tony Thompson the best American fighter of that era the only only American to tackle the overseas market with success. The Ks were importing American heavies unable to make paydays in their own country for good purses in Germany. Tony beats most heavy champs in history just by his physical attributes, not the least of being a southpaw, a recent development in modern boxing.

Baseball is designed to be a left handed sport where lefties some the greatest ever and exalted. Not so boxing that traditionally turned southpaws orthodox just so they could make a living since southpaws were otherwise avoided. Now they hold titles way out of proportion to their statistical numbers and Wlad holds the record for the most southpaw heavy title fights like other title records that he holds.

According to the dimwittery of this crowd, the 90s one of the best American eras ever that disappeared in **PooF)), abracadabra 00s where Fat Andy is the best by recent record Americans can claim, and he claims Mexican heritage, not American ancestry! The shame of U shamelessness is boundlessly infinite...

Lmao!!!! Are you serious? Seriously? Tony Thompson? I respect Thompson, but he wasn't fighting a murderers row before losing to Wlad the first time, nor the second time. The era was flat out horrible. One of Vits biggest wins was Corrie Sanders who's only top 10 win was against Wlad. One of Eladd biggest wins was against Byrd, who beat Vits, and who VK never rematched as promised. It's was the era of low skilled fly by night contenders.

"Tony Thompson beats most heavyweight champs in History"........ CLASSIC!!!!

I don't know what the 3rd best era is, but the current and last 7 or so years are the best, and the '90s are the worst.
