This is the classic response from an idiot.

Hey man, I just call it like I see it. Deal with it. Fact of the matter is, you need different skills to fight at heavy to be successful. End of story. Dont cry to me and call me names just because you cant back up your point of view.

Who's crying ?

Whatever the reason, heavyweights just don't offer all that the smaller guys do.
the action.....the variety of skills...the endurance....
the smaller guys have it all over the bigger guys.

Well, you have to remember, they dont offer what the smaller guys offer, they offer something completely different. They offer the prospect of serious bodily harm. They offer the possibility of satisfying all of our macabre curiosity. They offer damage. Pure and unadulterated. Thats the draw. The new boxing fan could, in my opinion, give a **** less about two little guys pecking on one another for an hour. But let two brutes get in there and start ****ing? Well ****, now we got a party! I hope I was able to articulate that correctly. Too much caffeine.

Wrong....

Take a look at the best KO's this year....they're all from BELOW the heavyweight division.

you are under the false belief that the big guys are more likely to score a KO, & you are wrong.

Wait until this PPV on Nov. 13th. I am positive you will not only see the four WORST fights of the year....but that NONE of them end in a convincing knockout.

Also....talk about "damage".
The smaller guys inflict FAR MORE damage on each other.
Look at the ring tragedies....virtually none are from the heavyweight division.

Well I admit my technical knoweledge of boxing is not as thorough as you guys might be, but I think (hope) that the fights we see will be action packed. I enjoyed watching Golota whoop up on Byrd, so hopefully at least this one with Ruiz will have some. We'll have to see.

And what "ring tragedies" do you refer to?

Ooh im scared

"And what "ring tragedies" do you refer to?"

Mancini-Kim
Davila-Bejines
Benn-McClellan
Pintor-Owens
Ruelas-Garcia

There are countless others.

Note : I am in no way glorifying these tragedies.
They're all horrible.
But, I'm using them as points to refute the misinformed notion that the big guys do more harm than the smaller guys.

Wasnt really my intention to scare you. I was just telling you how it is. But judging from your halloween party pics, if that really is you in that pic, you should be scared of pretty much everyone. Jesus, man, eat something.
