Do the Klitschkos secretly wish they were cruiserweights?

    They are cruiserweights, Wlad and Vitali's natural body weight is 175-190. They just bulk themselves up with steriods, that's why they only gain weight in training. Wlad's natural walking weight is just over 200 lbs.

    Haye, who had a title at HW and campaigned for the fight for years, having beaten a superheavyweight in Valuev prior to the fight taking place

    Adamek, who had been campaigning very successfully at HW for the last two years, defeating noted HWs like Arreola, Grant and Golota.

    Yeah, they're straight out of CW aren't they? Let's get mad

    It's not like they're ducking any outstanding super-sized heavyweight contenders... But I gotta agree, I'd much rather see them fighting guys their own size for a change.

    Watching them easily pummle these undersized former CWs with a jab and the odd right hand from the outside is getting real old.

    Even slow-ass Tony Thompson (at 6'5") gave Wlad a little challenge in the early going.

    Vitali will probably be retired before most of these super-HW contenders are "ready" to step up... But lets hope we can see some big boys in there with Wlad at least.

    Helenious 6'7, Wach 6'8, Ustinov 6'7, Dimitrenko 6'7, Fury 6'9

    For that matter, I'd even rather see Wlad fight Michael Grant than little old Mormek... at least it's a different look... And who knows?, with his size, maybe he could even make a fight out of it for a few rounds. (before getting KOed)

    No-one forces fighters to step up to the open division.

    Don't be so harsh on yourself, keep the blood pressure down.

    Well considering they're gonna go down as greats anyway it's sliced, i'd say they're pretty happy how things turned out.

    Infact unless vitali secretly hates his brother he's probably also happy about the injury layoff.

    Haye and adamek were both top 3 hw's. Aside from a sibling rivalry it literally could not be better.
