It would be interesting to see who would end up winning all the belts in this Heavyweight Touranment. In your opinion out of the current Heavyweights, who do you think will come out on top?
    It's necessary.

        Yeah, It wasn't really a tournament though, Just a few great fights with all the heavyweights

          agree with it except for the Toney part, but he could win the WBO no doubt but none of the other belts.

            The sad part is, if all the best heavyweights fought each other, most of the fights would still suck.

              It would be fun to talk about, but once it was over the champ would just slowly get stripped of his titles and we'd be back to square one. The root of the problem is these damn promoters and stations who have fighters locked in under contract. No one wants to put their fighter up against another unless he agrees to sign with them. Then again theres bull**** politics in every business out there, I don't see why boxing would be any different.

                I agree that the talent is appallingly poor at the heavyweight division. A tournament like the one discussed would be interesting though. I think Klit has the best chance of beating the others.

                    Vitaly Klitschko would beat the other three guys,

                    There is no chance of it ever happening.

                    Next topic.

                    That is one nice ass.
