    Personally I think the fading of the Boxing has alot of do with the HW division, we don't have exciting, meaningful fights (yet) up there. Wlad is a relatively boring fight but does what he does well.

    Think about it, everytime boxing had a great HW champ boxing has thrived Dempsey, Marciano, Holmes, Louis, Tyson, Holyfield, Lewis, Ali, Foreman you all remember those eras. Do you remember the eras without a great HW champ? Do you remember the era of Carnera? Sure there were some great fighters & fights in the lower classes but do you remember them?

    As soon as we have a exciting HW DOMINANT champion, boxing will be on the rise!

      Agreed sir. I still think that this era in boxing is not so bad. The lighter weight classes have good champions and I enjoy the fights even though we have to pay $50 to see them...I ti sthe people who you watch them with and talk about them with. i just wish we had events happening more often is all.
