    The joke that is the current heavyweight division.

    I was watching this fight



    Iran Barkley Weighed in at 229 lbs. This guy is a former Middleweight when he was in top shape. Most of the guys Klitschko fights are not even real heavyweights, they are fat middle weights. Barkley looks like one of the heavyweights of today at 229, most fools would say heavyweights are bigger than in the past as if this holds some kind of merit.

    For example, how is Joe Louis a small heavyweight at 200 lbs 6'2 but lean and ripped. When he retired and got soft I bet he blew up past 250 and still didn't look as fat as some of the guys in the ring today.

    A guy like Chris Areolla would be a 200 lb heavyweight back in the day, if he was lean and shredded. enough said. The real big men have bigger bone structure and natural muscle mass, not this oxygen sucking lifted muscle that isn't proportionate to the heart and lungs they were born with. Or all the blubber that allows these guys to come in at 250.
