why is the hw division garbage right now?

Because Big Americans rather play football or basketball

Lack of good fights, Brewster was the last exciting heavyweight.

Because everyone seems to get injured and nobody is really facing each other and when they do they disapoint. I don't know I think it's one of the lower divisions in boxing, but I liked some fights like Toney vs Peter 2 and I didn't mind Wlad vs Thompson.

i must know. i don't follow the division much really but the last time the hw division was in decent condition lennox lewis still was fighting.

Becuz HW fighters think that being big and having alot of punching power is gonna win theme fights. They aren't in shape. They dont train there abs, stamina, they don't even know how to ****ing fight. Half of them can't throw a decent Jab.

I think the right fights arn't being made, which don't help.

wait till sykes recovers from this spirited effort, yet dissapointing loss. he really showed the heart of a champ in there. with his skills, he has what it takes to really take his game to the top with a little more polishing. i'd rank him the 4th best hw of all time, 1 behind rocky marciano and 1 above Tye Fields...

They are not as vicious and exciting as they use to be. Most of these guys conditioning is a ****ing joke. Samuel Peters is a just a fat piece ^&^$&. The rest aren’t anything special nor are they.

how ignorant does that sound

cause if there where a good American fighter it would be exciting lol

Sam Peter reminds me of a poor mans Ibeabuchi smaller, fatter, slower weaker lighter puncher, weaker chin and less technique, If peter got in shape maybe he might do a bit better but you could say that for every heavyweight outside Wlad.
