    Think boxing is bad?
    Stop watching the heavyweights and pay more attention to the other weight classes and you won't think that way.

        Actually, we don't need a heavyweight division.
        To me that division is dead.
        All my boxing attention goes to the other weight classes.
        We will never have a division like we had in the 70's and before.

            Nah, we'd probably get the crap that we had in the 90s.
            I'm glad the heavyweight division is ****.
            When there isn't alot of heavyweight hype, only true boxing fans are around.

                    I never had a favorite weight division as long as the weight classes were deep then that's where I set my eyes on, however I do miss seeing "Talented" heavyweights slamming their gloves on another man's face just seeing the impact is something else. Anyone remember the combos that Tyson unloaded on Jose Ribalta(that was just vicious). I don't think the 90's heavyweight era was all that for the fact that none of them, with the exception of the Holyfield-Bowe series none of the top heavyweights fought in their prime and also below the top 4 of that time there were no real contenders that I can remember outside of Ray Mercer. What also screws it up is, well it just seems that boxers get more in trouble w/ the law compared to other professional athletes and that just messes up the timing of what should've been and I'm not just talking about Tyson here. I don't even pay any attention to the current heavyweight division, however I think Chris Byrd is way underrated, yes he does make for a boring fight, cause he's a light hitter and very slick but I would have to consider him if not the most talented heavy then definitely top 3. I would love to see Byrd vs. Toney I have mentioned this before. Who do y'all think would win? Also before Tyson really calls it quits I hope Tua comesback and both of 'em can get it on.
