      With so much time in the sport, it seems a waste to have hung around 175 for so long
      He's a middleweight who moved into light heavy in his 40s. He should have, for his health, retired years ago. It's not as if he's 28 or even 38. He's 48 years old.

        do you mean would bhop enhance his legacy more if he fought at hwt? depends if he fought and won a title or a big fight.

        worded this way the question seems ******ed because he clearly isn't big enough to fight at hwt.

            Don't think he has the body frame for it. He moved to LHW at 41. If you look at his body against Joe, Pascal, Winky etc he looks a bit skinny.

            Jones had the body frame to bulk up more, though he was truly a cruiserweight. Toney was just a fat ass and had no business at HW himself.

              It really hurt Haglers legacy that he didn't fight Larry Holmes. I mean Jones beat John Ruiz so why couldn't Hagler fight Holmes. Coward.

                Ive been telling everyone for years that the only reason the Klitschkos have belts is because my man Hopkins allows it to be so. He can take them both on....at the same time and win.
