    i said this ages ago....these huge guys need their own division...

    plus if there is a sensible new weight of maybe 100 kilos then it may even inspire some lardy guys to get in shape...

    That's one way of looking at it. But what would you do if another Valuev comes along ? He'd have a division to himself ? And they'd have to find more freaks to fill it ?

    True, but the Sugar Niks are rarities whereas the 6'6" plus guys aren't anymore.

    Yeah, but, for example, I liked Fury v Cunningham, and I thought Fury v Haye would have made a good fight too !

    So, for now, I'd say stick to the way it is. :good
