Should there be a Super Heavyweight Division?

Super Cruiserweight.

Heavyweight does not need to be touched.

You don't have to change the weight disparity, that is the whole point. If you're a great HW it doesn't matter if you are 220, if you can't compete with the best it's because you're not good enough.

Thats why we have weight class. You wouldn't expect Floyd to beat Artur Abraham would you?

Agree with this, the points I was saying in my other posts is that if a SHW Div had to be made then changes would need to be made then get rid of CW, cut off HW at 225-230(Give or take a few) and maybe increase LHW.

Ofcourse. Hypothetically speaking that is a brilliant idea if a SHW division were ever created.

175-230 pounds???

Now that Heavyweight Division will produce much more interesting match-ups.

so a lightweight should be able to stand toe to toe with a welterweight no problem with no catchweight or weight change?

Do you think Tyson and Frazier would beat the Klitschkos in the hypothetical that they fought?

Yes but you literally just named two of the GREATEST and most vicious heavyweights ever.

Show me guys that are ATG status walking around at heavy right now.

It is generally accepted that the smaller you are the more pivotal a few pounds can be. Hence why the weight divisions get closer and closer to each other the further down you go.

Also you find that being huge is not necessarily always an advantage in heavyweight boxing as it can really slow you down. Power isn't necessarily a benefit of being big either, as Valuev proves.

Then why would you want a SHW division? A guy like those has to emerge eventually statistically, so no need for a SHW division.

yes i believe two of the greatest heavyweights to ever breathed a breath would win.

your point?

you act like there are Tyson's and Fraziers everywhere

Thing is we can see the fighters coming up there isnt a hope in sight. Many including myself thought it would be David Haye but hes no back bone or balls.

tell the viewing audience that.

from a fan and from a business standpoint its a smart move IMO

as a fan you will have better matchups with guys who are of equal size so we wont have to see a small guy run around and a tall guy 1-2 to a victory.

as a business man you are creating knockdown drag-out fights with equally sized and skilled individuals. At the same time bringing interest back to the heavier divisions which what America loves.
