    They're more skilled too. Try to imagine heavyweights with skillset of Rigondeaux and Lomachenko

    I don't mind watching them, but Lennox Lewis was the last HW who had my interest.

      Yeah. Nothing's quite as awe-inspiring as when a heavyweight lands a giant crushing right hand, but they usually lack stamina or any kind of good skill in the ring. They're very slow to watch too.

      The little men bring more action most times which is more fun. The only thing I knock is when you have two strawweights in a 24 foot ring. Unless they're true warriors, you're gonna see way too much movement.
