        Personally I never bashed them. Its a fact that they are lacking in skill compared to the lighter fighters but then again, if this is what the heavyweights can offer, we can't do anything about it. Every division has it's era I guess. What I think spinx is trying to say is that it's a damn shame that the little guys is less attractive to the public even with their superior skills and talent. That's what I agree on.

Look at LL a master boxer was always in danger because guys like Rahman who aren't as good, but are very powerful. that's what me and YOU pay to see. the upset.
            Dude, come on...There are upsets happening in the lower weight classes just as much as the heavy's. And I disagree when you say you always know who is going to win. You don't. That's just boxing, no matter the class. Last year, who honestly thought Pac would TKO MAB. Rubio over Bojado, Wise over Chavez, Robinson over Gatti, Phillips over Tszyu to name a few in recent years. Heck most of the fights of the year, best wars I've seen happened in the lower weight classes. They give you yer money's worth, but that's just me.

                ya

                heavyweights are good one there isnt a ko in tha first round


                heavys are good when they land lots of punches and there is a ko in tha late rounds

                i'd have to say welterweight and featherweight is tha best rite now

                they got school and they dont throw slow ugly punches

                frazier/ali III was a good fight for heavy

                but then i can name hundreds of great fights with welterweights and featherweights

                    Yeah, I guess there are a lot more fans than real boxing fans.

                      casual fans like HW boxing because for most people , the HW champion of the world is THE BADDEST MAN ON EARTH .

                      that is so mythologic , it attracts everyone attention.

                      just my opinion
