IMO, the Heavyweight division is REALLY holding the spor back. thoughts?

Boxing is a whole different sport this **** is retarted...
I guess the 100meter runners must be the future of boxing as well since they're all big and strong and can run...

[Dr.Depravity]

It seems that most of us expect one dominant guy at Heavyweight, so that in itself my be hard for the fair weather fan to get his / her head around. But the competition in the Welterweight division should more than make up for it. Really this is a great time in that division for the sport. Its a shame more potential fans don't get to see them fight.

not the best boxers, but ull certainly find the best athletes in soccer over in europe. thats a fact.

And we're talking heavyweights, soccer players are much to small to be heavyweights.

NFL starts are regularly over 200 pounds

most centre-backs are 6ft/200lbs plus.

no reason? what reason IS there to appreciate the heavyweights when NONE of them seem to want to unify or improve the division or the sport.

What positivie thing have todays heavyweights done for boxing? The most positive thing was when Lamon Brewster knocked out Wladimir Klitschko, and then gave us an awsome fight with Lyko a few years later.

such good points. If they were just terrible, that would be one thing. But the fact that they're terrible AND don't want to unify makes it downright embarrassing. My friends who don't watch boxing seriously laugh at the heavyweight division. They don't give a **** who the champs are. They see Wlad fight and they leave laughing. It's downright embarrassing right now.

it amazes me how at least 75%+ of these posters that are all negative about the heavyweight division are black. hmmm,,,,get over it people

how do you know they're black?

my thoughts exactly.

YOu can appreciate a talentless fool who tries his hardest to do whats best for his sport, then a guy with all the talent in the world but avoids the best fighters and doesnt unify... ALL THE WHILE talking about fighting the best and wanting to unify

I hope you're not talking about Wlad, he's made the best matchups he could, how does he avoid the best fighters, according to most people, Peter is #2 and he already fought and beat him, Wlad just came out of a fight and all of the other belt-holding champs have their own fights to worry about, there is nothing Wlad can do right now about unifying.

yea,,,,I've found myself doing the same thing lately after watching him destroy 2 guys in a row with just one hand. best left hand in the biz bar none

If no one else will admit it, I will. I haven't been interested in the heavies since Lewis retired. He's not American, but he's black. I do like Klitschko, but not nearly enough to buy a PPV. Americans need their own heavies to root for and most of them are not competitive on the world stage. Right now the white, Euro's are running things in the heavy division and try as I might I'm just not that excited. Anyone who say's race and nationality has nothing to with people complaining is fooling themselves. Personally, I find the Euro's talented, but boring. Maybe, its because we don't get the coverage and interviews of Euro heavies?

Thanks for your opinion and your honesty, toyboy.

A lot of our regulars think like you do but don't have the balls to say it (even to themselves). They're self-hating whites and naively racist blacks. I spit on ******* like that. But an honest man who can admit his prejudices, him I accept. I've no problem with your view.

If you're gonna be a racist or a xenophobe just say what you think, don't *****-foot around like so many of these bitches do.


You know who you are if I'm talking about you.
