Will any of the current HW be considered all time greats?

[bigddubb]

After last weekend's garbage PPV heavyweight snoozefest, I have concluded that NONE of today's heavyweight contenders or champions will be considered all time greats. Who else agrees that the division is the weakest its possibly ever been? There's no excitement in the division. I mean what kind of numbers did that PPV do last weekend? Probably under 5,000 buys and that's being nice. I know this topic has been talked about over and over but it just sucks that the most prolific division has become so weak over the last 5-10 years. And having Willams v VK a PPV???? WTF this should DEFINITELY be an HBO regular telecast. Who wants to pay 45 bucks for this?

Someone please bring the greatness and excitement back to the heavyweight division!!!!

Yes, that is definitely trash, should be a ***en telecast, I understand if it was Toney vs VK. But comon, Williams?

I'll buy it cuz I want to see the Cotto fight...But I agree that it should be a regular telecast...At least I didn't waste my money on last weekend PPV...

since holyfield is still boxing he will be considered an all time great, also James Toney. Bryd could if he keeps winning, he had that belt for a while now.

I guess you could say that both Tyson and Holyfield are "current" HW. Those are the only 2 who will be considered all time greats. Klitchko has a chance but I doubt it.

I think that Tyson and Holyfield are all-time greats for their past performances. Kind of sad that they are still hanging around, but that is the nature of the beast a majority of the time for boxers. Maybe Vitali but he still has a long way to go before he gets there. Byrd possibly will go down as one of the best heavyweights defensively.

Holyfrield and Tyson, but as of now none of the others, well maybe vit if he cleans upp big time.

When you look at the great heavyweights that have gone before like Dempsey, Louis, Marciano, Ali, Foreman, Frazier, Tyaon etc. and then compare it to the current crop, I don't think there is any comparison.
