      Where were you when George had his resurrection !
      They would all decimate these goons parading around as HWs.
      Usyk, Fury
      Maybe AJ
      Will be the only HOFers from this era.

Today, the division is often seen as weaker, but that's largely because it's now dominated by non-American fighters, thanks to larger sponsorships attracting global talent and the dem@cratization of the sport, which was previously restricted in many countries.
        Almost half of Rings current HW top 10 is made up of fighters from a single country that has a fifth of Americas population and typically around 50 active pro HWs. Usyk has faced fighters exclusively from this one country for the past 5 years too.

        So global.

          - 20s Usyk goat
          - 00 K Brothers + Lewis
          - 10s K Brothers + Fury
          - 90s Andy Ruiz > Michael Moorer
          - 70, 80s Luis Ortiz and Frankie Sanchez would be boogeyman in this era​​
