    I'm Officially Done with Heavyweight Boxing (For Now)

    I'm going to go out on a limb and say I'm just done with Heavyweight Boxing, at least for now.

    Watching lastnight's fight with Arreola and Klitschko was an indication to me that nothing exciting is going to come out of that division for as long as the Klithscko's are running ****. Now this is not a diss at all towards them, they do what they gotta do. But when Chris Arreola is being called the best American Heavyweight prospect, that there is my cue to just stop watching. There is not 1 Heavyweight prospect, veteran, old timer who's going to beat these guys. They're 2 tiers above everyone else in every field. It seems as if every fight is set up with this one guy who may have a puncher's chance against the questionable chin of Wlad and the "aging" Vitali facing a young challenger. But in the end, you get the same result. The only 2 guys that are made mention of to have a "chance" to beat either guy are David Haye and Nikolai Valuev...just wow.

    Some people will think I'm hating on both the Klitschkos, but that is farther from the truth. I love seeing competition, and neither of these guys are facing any real competition (which isn't their fault either) nor do they finish fights like Heavyweights are supposed to. Boxing fan or not, boring is boring to me.

            I used to hate on Lennox, but at least he fought fighters with a pulse. I respected Lennox's game later on as his career dwindled down. The Klits are just in an era where the Heavyweight division is at almost an all time low, and they're boxers more than actual fighters (which is what the Division needs the most).

                As one sided as it was I was entertained anyway. Vitali was throwing a lot of punches, Arreola kept coming forward, it was alright. Arreola had never been in the ring with anyone remotely as good as Vitali, next time he'll have a better idea what to expect and possibly do better.

                And we can all hope David Haye takes out Valuev and gives us good fights against the Klitschkos.

                    I didn't even bother watching the fight and I was home doing nothing. And I'm a huge boxing fan.
