    Which division is worse, heavyweight or lightweight?

    Both divisions are bad right now.

    Heavweight:

    No action, we have WBC champ Fury who is looking for his dance partner, but nobody wants to be his dance partner and we have Usyk with 3 belts waiting on mandatories.

    Other guys are doing nothing or they call out Wilder and Joshua, two cash cows with no belts, who are pretending that they are negotiating december fight.

    Lightweight division:

    We have unified champ Haney, who is not even recognized as the best in division, he just got the win which he didn`t even deserve in the eyes of many fans and boxing people; we have tank who is a cash cow and doesn`t even want belts and we have Shakur Stevenson who is probably the best in division but nobody is gonna fight him.

    Lightweight is one of the best divisions in the sport right now in regards to possible matchups, talent depth etc.......

    Middleweight is one of the worse, mainly because up and coming contenders are not being advertised and the champions not willing to fight one-another

      Heavyweight by a mile. It’s all talk no action. Fury, Wilder and AJ have been the top guys since like 2015/16 and we’ve only seen the Fury-Wilder trilogy. Usyk gets a pass as he’s only been in the mix for like 2 years and seemingly will fight anyone anywhere.

      Lightweight despite it’s problems has delivered meaningful fights. Loma, Haney, Tank, Garcia and Lopez were the guys we wanted to see fight since about 2019 and in the following years we’ve had Loma-Lopez, Loma-Haney and Tank-Garcia. Plus an undisputed fight between Haney and Kambosos which probably deserves an honourable mention too.
