    You're the one that misquoted me, and then said it was the dumbest thing you've "heard" in this forum. Moron. You misquoted me, so i had to put you in your place.

    My point still stands, heavyweights don't move up in weight. It doesn't matter if they can or can't. All you can do is evaluate their skills at that weight. So if one decides to include the ability to move up in classes as part of the criteria to determine greatness in boxing, then heavyweights by definition are inferior.

      What's the Heavyweight limit? Compare any division of let's say a Valuev vs Haye or a Tyson vs Golota, or a Foreman vs Frasier. Compare those fight weights and heights vs divisions lower. You write the dumbest ****.

        So heavyweights can move up to what division exactly?

            GGG is GREAT for the sport.
            Or it could mean like GGG and Wilder, that you are fighting opponents from the pool of opponents who got the fight because they most likely will lose by KO.

              You are truly an idiot lol. Heavyweights don't move up in weight because the division is 200 pounds to unlimited, meaning guys can fight guys who outweigh them by 100 pounds on the day of the weigh in! This is simple logic. Middleweights don't fight guys with that kind of size advantage ever unless they move up in weightclasses. Stop being a nuthugger.

                I mean.... wait for it...

                how's that popularity now? how's that Big drama show? Or will his popularity be reserved for 2020?

                Seeeriouz queschin, this is boxing, this is business, jussss...

                I'll break this down or as scholars say "unpack" it. GGG can KO and drag any super-middleweight including Jack, DeGale, Ramirez and Dirrell.

                However, If he makes the mistake of going to 175, he should only settle for a fight with Kov and that's it.

                BECAUSE, if he goes to 175 theres a serious chance of him getting KO'd or losing because of the massive size advantage these guys have on him. That will force his team to be aggressive in avoiding, Stevenson and guys like Beterbiev. and that would ruin his whole brand.

                A Kovalev fight would be surreal and would solidify both careers no matter the winner.

                    ggg can't be hurt or ko'd by anyone. there are no cash cows at 175 for ggg to chase. he's only chasing canelo because ggg is all about that money.

                      What does moving up in weight have to do with popularity? Casual fans don't give a **** about that, and it's interest from casual fans that makes a fighter popular.
