Would Boxing be booming if there were Mexican in heavyweight??

[UncleRuckus]

Hypothetically speaking if Mexicans were taller and occupied the heavyweight division instead of around 135 and under would Boxing be through the roof?

The heart and excitement that a Mexican brings to a fight would surely be something good for the sport in the higher weight. Today the heavyweight division is so slow paced or the fighters are so out of shape that the fights are slow and boring.

If Mexicans were taller and in shape at those divisions were would boxing be today? I think the lower divisions would be **** but no one would care with heavyweight boxing being amazing. Also Manny Pacquiao wouldnt exist

There is a Mexican heaveyweight.

A fighter ain't gotta be Mexican to be excitin. That's the most important characteristic a HW or any other fighter can have. And even an excitin HW champ wouldn't make boxing boom. The best need to fight the best regularly, and not on ****in PPV all the time.

A heavyweight that brings alot of intensity would proberbly made boxing boom. Heavyweight when in it's best form can rake in millions even without a huge matchup. We also need a guy willing to face anybody, it's what everyone loved about Tyson.

Great style, fast hands, fast feet unified titles. The heavyweights now are methodical slow pace fighters with Vitali and Wlad showing the only real skill at the highest level. Wlad is still boring and Vitali is slow but exciting against Peter it was soo one sided that I didn't enjoy it. Haye's style would bring a great amount of attention back to Boxing especially with his Charisma, now if only his chin were Granite

Boxing would be booming if everyone involved werent so greedy. Greed is the source of any demise.

People tell me boxing not good because the heavyweight division is boring. Imagine boxing if there were heavyweights like morales barrera arce marquez in the heavyweight division

Not true, Don King's era of promoting while alot of the fighter didn't receive the amount they should have were forced to fight to King's schedule. If you weren't under King you didn't get a fight. He was the one that arranged the Heavyweight Tournament between Tyson and the other Beltholders that made Tyson so famous.

He arranged the fights between Frazier and Ali and Foreman (i think) and Don King is one of the greediest individuals in all of Boxing.

In boxing, folks like to get behind a champion that they share something in common, so that would be a good thing...maybe. Depending on how he fought -Latinos didn't jump behind Ruiz so much when he held belts because his style wasn't crowd pleasing.

Chris Arreola is Mexican-American. If he ends up becoming a champion, I predict a rapid upswing in his popularity amongst people of his shared nationality....
