Why do people who say the heavyweight division is awful post about it so much?

The division isn't stacked, thats the problem. There also seems to be a lack of ambition among the contenders; they're content with sitting around, waiting for an easy shot at a belt.

Feel sorry for Wladimir, especially.

I like the Klitschkos a lot (favoring Wlad a bit more), but I also have no problem admitting this is a very weak heavyweight era. I can understand why some people might find Wlad's style very boring. Some of it is their dominance, some of it is that you'd have to go try and UD a strap from them in Germany, but another part is that this is a really bad heavyweight era.

Oh come it's pretty obvious, they must remind us and convice themselves ,in the same time, every once in a while

i don't know what you call the first course of this two-piece dinner, but it is awesome

If you believe the heavyweight division isn't interesting right now....

then why are you so interested that you post more about it than you do about all the other divisions combined?

Where did i say it's uninteresting? I said it's NOT STACKED, that's all. That's a fact.

Why else is Wladimir fighting no-hopers? Its because the genuine contenders are content with sitting around waiting for a belt to fall into their lap.

The sanctioning bodies should get tough on those guys.

Can't take freedom seriously. He's one crazy Klit lover boy.everything someone says that isn't bowing down to the kitschkos is an automatic nationalistic ******* and hates them.

At the same time, Freedom posts more about Russian/polish fighters than everyone else combined and claims others are nationalistic.

[Weltschmerz]

They are just jealous souls, underachievers. It's normal, you find it everywhere.

This seems rather strange to me.

If I thought a division was in bad shape - for example super featherweight right now - I'd have little interest in it and rarely post about it.

Yet the people who repeatedly say the heavyweight division is awful post about it more than any other division!

I don't think this is the case. Its because posters like you that love the klits create so many Klit/Hwt related threads. When people go in those threads they simply point out what writers, tv personalities, and almost everyone connected to boxing points out-this is the weakest the division has been in some time.

Also, there are not enough older fans on NSB that would remind you the same thing was said when Larry Holmes was the champ. Its not nationalistic at all.

I think you default to that response because its difficult for you as a klit fan to have a debate where you defend their wins and their resumes vs the great HWT's. instead of keeping it boxing, you go to the race/nationalism thing because thats the only way you can divert the conversation.

They're just bitter, fat little people looking for any way to discredit the Klitschko brothers from what I've seen. I'd like to see the fighters fight more often but its been like this for a long time now. Its not something that just started in this era. The haters will say and twist anything to create the illusion of them being right.
