    Is it crazy that I only watch Heavyweight boxing?

    It is the only division that really interests me.

    I don't really care about fighters moving up and down weight classes of 7 pounds each.

    I love the higher chances of knockout at Heavyweight.

    Heavyweight Champion of the World is the top dog in the sport.

    I just find it more entertaining for some reason.

          Makes sense if you live in the UK or Europe. In America it's relegated to the undercards most of the time.

              Makes a lot of sense, to be a boxing fan and not want to watch a single good boxing match.

                      The big boys can be fun for sure. Just about anyone can knock you out. Plus, in public, heavyweights look like killers whereas the smaller guys don't have the look, even though they can beat the hell out of most people.

                          Yeah, you're crazy.

                          Most of the great fighters are not heavyweights.

                          I can't imagine missing out on Crawford, Inoue, Shakur, etc. . .

                              Not crazy at all, when I take breaks from watching boxing I'll still tune in to the big heavyweight clashes. There was a Canadian user on here who used to talk only heavyweights, and his trips to Cuba.

                                  It's not crazy. I have been well above the middle weight limit since age 16 . While I do have respect some respect for the little guys in boxing it often takes a high level match to get me interested.

                                      Not crazy at all, its a preference. Smaller guys make their bodies react better = Better masters of the art. But eliminate weight divisions and we'd all be watching heavyweights.
