You know the Heavy weight class sucks when HBO drops the best fighters.

      Yeah but the K-bros used to fight on HBO and they did not always fight Americans, it is just that now, there are NO Americans that are any good but half of the ones that did fight were really no names to the casual fan anyways.

      ESPN could do big things, they need to get back into the game. They used to be the HBO of boxing now they put Tennis ahead of boxing.....

          What do you have against the Klitschkos, Milton?

          They are fine champions, why do you hate them so much?

              Watching mediocre American heavyweights fight is better than watching the Klits fight mediocre Europeans. Arreola-vs-Walker is a case in point. More action in those three rounds than Wladimir's entire decade.

              And if the brothers ever fought each other, it'd be a disaster. Imagine two Klit brothers stinking out the ring at the same time, and 75,000 Germans paying to sniff up the stench. Maybe an incense maker could sponsor it.

                I've said this before. But if Adamek had the same size and strength as the Klits he would beat them. Vitali at least punches in combos on occasion but Vlad fights like a little ho.
