Is the HW Division a Joke?

[Wowowee]

the division is really bad right now. Worst division no question.

[drvooh]

If you take the top guys in todays heavy weight divison and compare them to previos era's..This current group of HW's would get the **** beat out of them by guys like Tyson, Holyfield, Holmes, Ali, Foreman, Spinks Leon and Michael..etc..Frazier, Norton..etc..etc..

Both Spinks' Cooney/Norton, would lose to peter..

[drvooh]

The reason why the HW devision is being dominated by Europeans is because all of the good big American athletes are going to other sports like football and basketball. Where they can make just as much of more money and not get the **** beat out of them for 12rds..lol..

I agree...If I were an american pro type athlete, and I saw my fellow Americans in the olympics getting beat by the Euros/east Euros, for the medals, and getting whopped, I too would run away and try basketball/football, or whatever.

[drvooh]

Lets remember Liston, Patterson, Chuvalo, Ali, Fraizer, Foreman, Quarry and others, all who are far superior to anyone in the HW division currently.

With the exception of Foreman/Ali...POSSIBLY Frazier ( MY Idol from then )..Peter would beat any of em...Look at Liston...Ali, NOT a big puncher...though highly skilled, KO'd Liston with about 33% of Peters' power ( Briggs and Brewsters for that matter )
If Peter ever hit Liston ...Liston would still be in a coma as of now..

A very BAD joke on the boxing world Any minute I expect to look up and see Trevor Berbick and Tony Tubbs wearing title belts

Both Spinks' Cooney/Norton, would lose to peter..

This is a demonstration to you of the multi-quote function. I encourage you to use it.

too much sweet science? are you a boxing fan?

boxing is not a popularity contest. you shouldn't have to have a magnetic personality.

the klitschko fight may have been boring to you, fine. but you will not be taken seriously if you think wladimir klitschko is not an exciting fighter.

A sport requires marketing to grow. Marketing requires personalities and an exciting draw.

I clearly complimented Wladimir on his technical ablility but trying to expand the sport of boxing with such displays is not going to happen.

People's idea of a good match is a slugfest or a knockout powerhourse like Tyson.

So they no longer like the dance, jab, run...like Ali/MAlignaggi/Patterson/Holmes./ Mayweather, ..and now Wlad??
Dempsey/Frazier/Louis/Marciano are the only ones left to appreciate??

And yet you've just done it again.
