Is this at least the second best era ever for the HW division?

    I keep hearing bigoted trolls on here constantly coming out with garbage like "this is the worst era ever" etc....... Yet no one can deny that this era is over flowing with amazing depth, with the strongest top 50 ever. Every era usually has 1 or 2 ATG boxers, this era clearly has that in the Klitschko brothers, two men who would hold their own in any era.

    But even below that is top class talent that if born in a different era would likely have dominated as a long standing champion. Why exactly is this era "****" when the next contenders are Haye, Adamek and Povetkin, are you really trying to tell me these three couldn't of dominated an era within the last 100 years? **** off.

    Then there is the experienced heavies still fighting at a high level that again would hold there own in any era, nobody would walk through them, I'm talking about Sam Peter an ex World champ, who until his first defeat smashed his way through the division, destroying the hyped James Toney in the process. Chagaev an ex World champ who still has plenty of years left to compete , Thompson one of the most dangerous South paws the sport has seen, Juan Carlos Gomez the former CW king that has only lost to the best at HW and ex World champ Valuev, ok I'm not the biggest fan of Valuev, but the fact remains, nobody is going to have an easy fight against him, nobody in history would walk over him.

    Then let's not forget the decent HW's who have come up short, but are still decent and can hold their own and have enough time on their side age wise to come back, I'm talking about the likes of Arreola, Chambers, Solis who if comes back from injury could yet be a real force.


    Then there is the up and comers and guys who soon will be on the verge of a title shot, I'm talking about Helenius, Ustinov, Boystov, Pulev, Glazkov. Again what is wrong with these fighters? These guys would be useful in any era, this division **** you say? Your having a ****ing laugh.



    On top of all that you still have decent enough guys in the top 50 that are very useful and will put up a fight, guys like Dimitrenko, Platov, Fury, Liakhovich, Pala, Pianeta, Gerber and Timur.


    So then haters, tell me why this era is so bad, I want you to go into detail why the top 10 fighters are not up to your standards, come on now heres your chance.

    Other than the Klitschkos and Haye, all the other HW's are **** compared to contenders from other eras.
    Like Adamek, He put on a poor performance when he fought Grant.
    When he gets in the ring with Vitali, it's going to be a one sided beat down that will end in under 6 rounds.

    Adamek has won every HW fight he has fought with ease, he hasn't come close to losing at HW.

    He was shaken by every punch that Areola hit him in the latter rounds. The fight was a lot closer than what the score cards suggested.

    It is a troll thread, but any opportunity to state that this is the worst HW era is to be taken.

    Yeah, I dont know how you can hype this division when theres no clear best fighter, and the best wont fight eachother. At least Haye is now fighting Wladdy boy, but Povetkin turns down big money for a title shot, the two long reigning brother champs wont fight anyone and unify the division properly, its full of ducking.

    Nah Adamek just looks shaken. Check out the Briggs fights. You would swear that Adamek was out of there - but he just looks like it.
