    Why can't Heavyweight Fighters get int tip-top shape anymore?

    I know everybody is made up different but this is bull**** looking at most of the HW division with fighters who can't even see their **** when they pee. WTF happened?
    Most of these guys can breast feed which might come in handy if they ever do become Champion so they can go to a third world country and feed the orphan babies.
    These guys are so fat that if they do win the HW title they will have to throw it over their shoulder because it isn't fitting around their waist.
    It just pisses me off. If you don't have at least a 52 inch screen TV, you are not going to see the fight.

    Who do we really have in the HW division that looks like they train?

    The Klitschko brothers and David Haye and....??? not many more. And maybe they are really it.



    I know many fighters today aren't as active as in the past but still, certain fighters like Wlad, Vitali, and David H, all stay in good shape throughout the year.

    Sad, very sad.

        I heard from Dan Rafael that Vitali tried to salvage the Sept date by trying to land Chris Arreola as a replacement; only to have Arreola turn it down because he was "out of shape." Talk about missing an opportunity...

          Because there is no limit on the weight, they should make a rule like UFC where you can only fight for a belt under 250 lbs or so. Valuev can suck a **** for being too tall.

                Long may the dominant KOs continue from the in-shape Klitschkos.
