Emanuel Steward: "I’ve always been for having a super heavyweight division"

This is pretty much the long and short of it for me - no real problem other than the Klits are decent (at best) and giant - most of the others are awful and a lot smaller - if they were simply better fighters (and fought better) there wouldn't be a problem - David Haye was just terrible against Vlad - he didn't even fight??!! - if he'd have actually turned up he would've won but he just didn't :-(

 

Exactly correct!!!
You would think Stewart would have known this. Was stunned to see him refer to it being established in the Ams

 

Of course. :good

 

Wladimir's next fight is against Jean Mormeck.

If there was a super-heavyweight division, Wlad would have lost out on several of his biggest paydays. Guys like Chambers, Haye, Mormeck, Byrd are essentially blown-up cruisers already. And with a new divide, guys like Ibragimov, Chagaev, Williamson could probably remain a division too small for Wlad too.

Truth is, people will always be aiming for the highest division, even if they have to get fat and take steroids to get up to it. And the champion at the top will always be looking for opponents to come up from the lighter divisions when (as often is) his own division lacks credible established contenders.

 

Well said. :good

 

Nah, anything that gives the fatties too much opportunity is objectively bad.
