    Theres a good chance it will be a Brit if they keep producing the way they are atm.

    As far as the historically important bit goes. Wlad KO all the lower champs. Doesn't matter how exciting the Heavyweight champ is he ibecause he is the number one boxer on the planet.

    Finland (which is looking like a very real possibility) would be ****ing awesome, but otherwise agree with this.

    If peeps complain about the division now wait till the klitschkos are gone! There isnt one person i see now that can overcome the many different styles that are and remain on top of the division outside of the klits. So when they are gone so will be the clarity. You will have stuff like helenius ko'ing fury then eddie chambers will decision helenius . Next povetkin will beat chambers again ect ect ect . So the promoters will tighten up on there belt holders and match them very carefull

    I have favorite fighters from many countries, nationality means nothing to me. I follow the best from everywhere.

    I don't care which country the next HW champ comes from even before they've retired.

    I truly don't give a damn. It's be great to have a Brit as champ but it's never been some kind of that-or-nothing obstacle, I'd find that silly.

    Don't care, just want a champ with a chip on his shoulder and ass kicking abilities in the ring. Enough Mr. Nice guy already!

    dude most Americans are Klitschko fans. if you didn't notice, most white Americans pull for their own. imagine the support Andre Ward would get if he was 100% white, would probably be the biggest p4p star in the world

    Couldn't really give a **** what country a fighter is from, though it does help if they can speak English

    Anyone that will make exciting fights. That means no Helenius. I hope Pulev or Povertkin gets groomed in to it. Or of course an American like Mitchell, Chambers, ect but I doubt it. But odds are we will get stuck with Helenius, he won't throw a punch for 8 rounds, then go for the KO....

    Don't care were he comes from, I just hope to God it's not one from the current set of prospects and contenders - it's gotta be someone we haven't heard of yet for the division to be worth watching. I'd like to believe Helenius or Fury could become good but I watch them and it's just... no.
