    Welterweight, middleweight and heavyweight divisions are almost dead, so if you want to watch boxing, you must watch low divisions.
    The Heavyweight Division is in a transitional phase 'We are witnessing the latter stages of the Fury, Wilder and Joshua era'.

    For the best part of a decade, the Heavyweight Division has been the best division in boxing 'In terms of competition'.

    The same situation which is happening down, occurred in the late 90's and early 2000's 'Lennox Lewis was the last man standing of that great era'.

    Now? The competition between Fury, Wilder, Joshua and Usyk. Is a competition to see who will be the last man standing from their era.

    All the major fights really have already happened.

      Why do people always have a problem with this? The quality of fights, skills, and competition is there the same.

            If the JBC hadn't only given him two weeks to recover from Covid, he'd be undefeated and probably getting some P4P recognition. The way he dominated Kyoguchi in what was SUPPOSED to be a #1 vs #2 close fight was astounding.

              The heavyweight divsion for now has turned into the " champions " fighting old or unranked men with Fury being the king ducker.

                  It’s a shame most people don’t understand how accurate and perfect some of these fighters are, bc they are low in weight it equals low appeal for some.
