    It's not a great time to be a Heavyweight boxing fan due to the half ass skill most of the fighters possess. Paying hard earned money to watch fighters hug, pitty-pat, and look clumsy all night long pisses me off. Thank god for de-scramblers.

    Truthfullly, it will be like this for awhile and all that we can do as boxing fans is to be patient until a new heavyweight emerges and unifies all the belts....OR a current belt holder decides to stop ****ing around and Unifies to become Undisputed. Currently, things are a god-awful mess.

      I think this is about right...
      When you start talking about Tua in the same sentence as Champion, things have gotten pretty bad.

      I hope someone comes along pretty soon.

        Yeah. When anybody gets excited about Tua, then we HAVE a problem!

        Really, just look at the HW title holders today - Ruiz, Byrd, Brester, Vitali (never mind the contenders' list, you'll just get more depressed!) Except perhaps for Vitali, none of the present crop can create a stir larger than a drop of Eye-Mo in a pool. It's lifeless, boring, devoid of any excitement!

        The last geat era had LL, Evander and Tyson. And they're practically all gone now. Do we see a new golden age in HW boxing? From where I sit, no. Not yet, anyway!

          Middle of the road

          Middle weight and welterweight is were boxing is at now and has been at for the last few years. I don't see anything changing that soon. We need some better fighters and fights at the heavyweight division to bring my attention there again

            The heavyweight division is wretched.

            I honestly could care less, who wins a fight among fighters above 168 as a matter of fact.

            It is just "fun" to speculate. HW division is a freakshow, and the lightheavyweight division flat out sucks.

            That Tarver/Johnson fight was a load of garbage if you ask me.

              Skillwise my vote goes to byrd, I realize a lot of other people dislike byrd but he is a pretty good champ and as a boxer byrd is complete, however I feel if he was w/ another promotion company he would shine a lot better.....Byrd has the balls the size of klitschko byrd has never ducked anyone and wants to fight everyone.....Chris and Vitali are the 2 top heavyweights right and need to finish their business....

              Byrd will school McCline especially since he stated he doesnt want to brawl anymore and that was just a test and to show the public he can stand on a dime and trade w/ no trouble.....Since he is going to traditional byrd I see noone stopping him for a while....Unless he meets someone w/ tremendous power although noone in the division possesses this except vitali (maybe) and I think Jirov would be a threat to byrd but other than that unless Ike gets out of prison Byrd will be on top for a while next to Vitali.

              Well 3 out 4 of vk last opponents LL,kj and dw outweighted him, he aint allways the heavyer.
              Vk is actually the best trained of them.

              Byrd is ducking wk.

              But byrd will beat him if they ever fight again

                  I cant wait till the next batch of real fighters enters the Heavyweights because right now the division is so boring and the talent that does have the belt really isnt talented. This has to be the worst Heavyweight set of fighters I have seen all my life!

                    Vitali Klitschko-Robotic and quit against a ****in Bird

                    Chris Byrd-Thinks he deserves all the money in the world but he reall aint **** and punches like a ****in girl

                    Calvin Brock-Awesome combination punching and underrated power, but still to green, definately some potential though

                    James Toney-Former Middleweight Champion, the last thing we need is a blown up middleweight taking over the heavyweights

                    Samuel Peter-One dimensional overrated fighter

                    Wladimir Klitschko-Glass chin.....

                    Lamon Brewser-My boy and will take over the division hopefully

                    John Ruiz-The biggest bum to ever hold a title

                    Hasim Rahman-Overrated and only holds a win over Lennox Lewis and lost to a 41 year old Holyfield


                    Torino....you don't make sence LOL
