Is the heavyweight division ruining boxing?

[The Problem]

We all know that the lower classes is where the real boxing is at, No where else can you see Speed,Skill, stamina and heart where fights actually go the distance not just heavy brutes who gets a KO within one round with no boxing skills whatsoever ,Don't even get me started about today's heavyweights.

boxing is at it's lowest popularity level in years. not as many promoters putting on cards these days because of the economy worldwide. Europe is doing well in some parts, Quebec, british isles. when the HW division is thriving so does boxing. we need a star like Tyson. lewis & holyfield who were fearless champions who fought everyone. in the days Tyson & holyfield were making 30 million purse a fight then add PPV. between them they blew almost 700 million before their 40th birthdays....that is when boxing was on top. don king would Tyson\someone the main event, Michael moore\botha in an ibf title fight, a HW eliminator , then the fights like danny Garcia\amir khan happen...they would be fourth down the card...the big event was the HW title fight.
