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

[The Hammer]

The Klitschko's won't be truly appreciated until they're both retired and people will have time to sit a bit and reflect back on them.

Yes, they'll finally be given the respect they deserve from all but a few hard-core haters.

[Mr. Fantastic]

It's all nationalism, race or/and who they like. People don't like to lose and since none of them are winning towards Wlad and Vitali atm, they throw the white flag.

Look at how much attention they put on basketball(Wlad/Vit haters), specially the Olympics.....the "Dream Teams" go up against teams that have no chance in hell but they see the games and go ape **** over it and watch a basketball slaughter. Because they're dominating they make no excuses or anything and instead PRAISE the domination.


That's just one example.

That's a good example on people's double standards.

of course the dream team gets credit for beating spain and argentina-good teams. they dont get praise for blowing out angola or england. the dream team also doesnt lose to average teams.

Its just sad that posters like you and freedom and other klit lovers have to detour debates to rac and nationalism because you always lose the debate if the talk is just boxing.

Wlad is a 1st ballot HOF'er. Vitali will be in the HOF too even though I don't think he deserves to be because he hasn't defeated anyone meaningful and lost to his 2 best opponents. You guys should be ok with the fact they will both be in the HOF some day.

You just cant accept that the majority of fans dont hold them in the same regard as the great heavyweights because of the weakness of the fighters in the division. Its no different than Larry Holmes.

[Ryn0]

Because historically it's boxings greatest division and the level of competition isn't good enough right now.

Outside of the Klitschkos, Haye, Povetkin, Pulev, Fury and maybe Price/Wilder if they can sort their careers out there is no one.

That being said both Klitschkos are very good fighters.

[Bushbaby]

I has to be because of who the 2 most dominant fighters have been for easily a decade.

Ever given it a thought that the division looks 'weak', due to the brother's superiority?

[Capncrunch]

And a lot of fight fans are negative so combine your reasoning and the negative posts, it will equal a lot of topics on the Heavyweights. People are too hard on the Klitschko brothers.

[Bigg Rigg]

Well I'm not speaking for those who you are talking about but I do dislike the division very much. I think it stinks. Not that the champions stink, just the competition stinks. The Klitschkos are ok. The rest of the guys in the division suck and are out of shape and Just look wack.

This is true. The USA basketball team did what the Dominicans did in baseball this year in the World Baseball Classic but the Dominicans got less then half the coverage and praise the dream team got.
