    Joe, why don't you just follow another division then? For a guy who thinks the hw division "sucks," you sure do post a lot about it. I'd say 95% of the NSB posts I see of yours is in hw division threads....

        Instead of whining about what I post all the time why not debate it and prove me wrong? 95% of your posts towards me are "why are you posting this" or "why don't you follow another division". Why are you so hung up on what I post?

          BG has an agenda. He doesn't mind some posters spreading propaganda about how good the heavyweight division is but he doesn't want to see the other side of the coin.

            This is the first time I've called you out on this. I think it's a valid observation.
            Granted, I'll give you the division has problems but there are still a lot good hw fights taking place. Does it "suck" ? - no. Is it 90's hw excitement? - no. But if you've watched any of Mago, Mitchell, Szpilka, Pulev, Jennings, Wilder fights in the last 6 months, and thought "this division sucks" then you're probably watching the wrong sport....

            Have you seen any of those guys fight, Joe?

              No its not, so lets not play coy.

              I've seen all of them fight and I enjoy watching them. Obviously though you're ignoring the fact that most fighters are fighting less often overall and against weaker comp more often. You are also ignoring the fact that with 4 or 5 major orgs fighters can get away with this and have grown content with it. Oh, and lets not confuse excitement with skill level.


              Have you seen any of those guys fight, Joe?
              Why do you keep callingt me Joe? Is that meant to bother me? How about just sticking to my screen name please, I wouldn't want to feel like a stand up guy like yourself was harassing me.

                My bad, JAB.

                I dont care too much for the light hw division - I know what going on but I don't go out of my way to follow it. However you do complain a **** load about how the hw division sucks. It's just funny how you criticize it every chance you get,but you follow it closer than most on the website...

                I don't have an agenda other than enjoying good boxing and an having an optimistic outlook on the status quo...

                  Thank you BostonGuy, apology accepted. What I post are all facts. You may like an optimistic outlook but that doesn't always equal the reality. I'm sorry if you don't like what I post, but this is a boxing website and I'm talking about boxing. Its not like I'm making things up and it seems like many people on here agree with my assessment.
