Exposing the HW lies: Part2..

Here is another commom lie we see on this forum every day.

"The division is nothing but fat overweight bums!"

Is that true?

Here is the newest top 10 from the Ring magazine.

Champion: Wladimir Klitschko, fantastic shape.

#1 Vitali Klitschko, fantastic shape.

#2 Alexander Povetkin, fair shape.

#3 Tomasz Adamek, very good shape.

#4 Alexander Dimitrenko, top shape.

#5 Robert Helenius, can be a little out of shape.

#6 Denis Boytsov, top shape.

#7 Rusland Chagaev, can be overweight in his fights.

#8 Chris Arreloa, overweight by 25+ pounds.

#9 Kubrat Pulev, a little overweight.

#10 Tyson Fury, good shape.



Now let's go back 20 years to a top 10 that was never called "fat.."

The Ring's top 10 from 1992.

Champion: Vacant.

#1 Riddick Bowe, Bowe's prime weight was in the mid 220's in 92 he fought Evert Martin at 235lbs and Pierre Coetzer at 245lbs.
So in 92 Bowe was "fat"

#2 Lennox Lewis, top shape.

#3 Evander Holyfield, fantastic shape.

#4 Michael Moorer, in 92 Moorer was fighting with a massive gut.

#5 Tony Tucker, his prime weight was around 220lbs. In 92 tucker fighting in the high 230's. Or, a little overweight.

#6 George Foreman, his prime weight was mid 220's, but Foreman was fighting in the mid 250's. Very overweight.

#7 Razor Ruddock, good shape.

#8 Ray Mercer. was fighting in about the same shape as Povetkin in today.

#9 Tommy Morrison. Tommy's prime weight was 214/218lbs but fought around 228 in 92. Or, about like Povetkin today.

#10 Alex Carcia, fair shape.

So as anybody can see todays fighters are in better shape than 20 years ago.:hi: Just another lie from the haters.
