What are the reasons for a week HW division?

[niceguy45]

even the belt holders are boring including wlad, nothing impressive,
there are no HW now that has one punch KO, most of em' go the full 12rds,
which is kinda boring watching HW...........man that tyson ERA

There's actually a lot of talented fighters at heavyweight - for example, Povetkin, Wlad, Sultan, Chagaev, Boytsov - but some people don't evaluate them fairly because their skin is the wrong color.

Talented in comparison to Ali, Tyson, Frazier, Foreman?

Yep. Most of them struggle to walk around the ring. They lack speed. Some thing which the great decades of the HW division have had.

Half of them look like blobs aswell.

all of a sudden im watching espn classic almost every night,
man joe louis was something else compared to all these bums "title holders"
going back to 1933 he looked great, good old days, same with Ali,tyson,frazier, is just not the same

Yeh i have been watching that to.

And then i go and watch Povetkin vs Chambers. its like 2 guys throwing pies at each other. lol.

I want the old days of HW's

I think the reason that its considered weak is because there has not yet been a dominate heavyweight that has tried to unify the titles.
Part of the blame has to go to Don King, if he had it his way his fighters would have all the belts and everyone of them would face golota consecutively (again). Thank goodness for mandatories.
The champions now (the europeans/ex-soviets) are fighting unification fights, and we will have an undisputed champion soon enough.

lmao, **** that's right, mad ****ing boring, can you belive this i actually want to watch the special on joe louis on saturday more than than wlad vs ibragimov on free hbo....crazy man

[Ironside]

Some people can't tell for **** a good boxer from a bad boxer. You don't have to look pretty to be good.

[niceguy45]

i mean wlad is the current IBO champ and ibragimov the WBC i mean when is title fights is a lil bit interesting but that's about it, i'd rather watch classics

It was Chambers who ******, with his "ear muffs" defense, not Povetkin.
