    Sorry, this heavyweight era is really poor

    40+ old Povetkin in terrible shape, knocks old cold top 5-6 contender, 32 old?

    Klitschko beat the same Povetkin 7 years ago.

    Only Fury is probably good there, others are all very average. Joshua is probably like Bruno 2.0.

    Could be Michael Grant was better than Wilder.

      No it is clearly not. Klitschko was a big champ, beating prime Povetkin easily. Povetkin was done as a true contender after Wladimir beat him.

      Now past prime Povetkin still hangs around knocking out top 10 guys.

            Yep.. It sucks big time. Joshua, Wilder, and Fury are bum clowns, too. That's why I never follow the heavies.

              “This era is really poor” is exactly what has been said about every single HW era ever.

                For real. Fres Oquendo would be undisputed champ during this era though

                Kirk Johnson would of flourish as well

                  Always said this ERA is extremely overrated and all of them will Suffer Defeats so again I would advise Fans/Fanboys of these Heavyweights all to stop laughing and joking when one guy falls because your guy is next. Doesn't mean it is not a good and fun ERA but yes a lot of fans overrate Wilder, Fury and AJ

                  Yes I do think Fury is the most skilled of this ERA of Heavyweights but ultimately he too will suffer and embarrassing Defeat. He basically was knocked out in the 1st Fight with Wilder but he got up which shows his toughness but yeah this ERA is FAR from "GREAT"

                  People are overrating fighters simply because they're not The Klitschko's and yes this ERA is more Entertaining because it is not that great big disparity in talent like it was with the Klitschko's in which they was just so much better than everybody in their ERA

                  Ultimately either Dubois, Hrgovic, Jared Anderson, Tony Yoka, Efe Ajagba, Frank Sanchez...one of these younger guys are going to come up and just disrupt everything and throw this Division Off yet again so it is going to be a Roller Coaster of a Division which will make it fun to watch at least

                  Also need to see more of Usyk at Heavyweight and how much of factor he can be at that Division. Can't just write him off in this ERA so fast. I think he is too small for this ERA but we shall see.

                    No it’s wasnt.

                    Only this era coupled with the klitxhko era but before that the 90’s and below was a good era will HWs who actually had skill.
