Should there be a Super Heavyweight Division?

Maybe if we changed the name of the CW division more ppl would be interested and more fighters would have reason to stay there.
Just imagine what more casual fans would think when they heard about a CW title fight. They probably are like WTF is a CW? Pass........
What if boxing just moved the class a few pounds up or down and rehashed it the UltraLHW or something fantastical like that?
Sounds simple but its easy to get ppls attention with flash.Comment

Thats why I think people are interested in fights involving Tua, Arreolla, Haye and Adamek.
They'd be exciting and close. And they wouldnt be mismatches.Comment

Bit of a rash move. Plus I really doubt it'd make any difference. People just love seeing the biggest and baddest face each other which is what the heavyweight division provides (well, the 'biggest' part anyway). It's natural that the second biggest guys are gonna be eternally overshadowed, but the further you go down the less size is a factor in people's perception.Maybe if we changed the name of the CW division more ppl would be interested and more fighters would have reason to stay there.

Unless someone really good and/or really popular settles into the cruiserweight brackets and brings some attention to the division there isn't ever gonna be much money there. And even then, that big star would probably move up to heavyweight to multiply his earnings anyway.
The word 'heavyweight' is a draw in and of itself.Comment

"adding a super heavy division forcing the klits to move up, so other fighters can rain at heavyweight"
