Can we now stop dismissing the heavyweight division

The heavyweight division is the only division that matters. Everything else is just a way to pass the time until the heavyweights get good again.

 

Nah, always had a spot for the middle and super middles. That's my favourite division, historically.

 

I've always had a fondness for Super middle. Always seems to produce good, entertaining fighters of different styles.

 

The heavyweight division has had talent for a while, the problem is that none of the top boxers are fighting each other. They all fight lower ranked boxers til they get their shot at WK. But now with FUry taking the belts and saying he does not want to keep all of them it may cause more fighters to start taking on better opponents to get those belts.

 

Agreed. And Joshua has the potential to be even better than Tyson, the Klitschkos, anyone else. Joshua could become GOAT. But it's early to say.

Certainly he's the boxer with the biggest muscular body ever.

 

70s maybe, but 80s was worst era ever. Tony Tucker no way.

 

It has gotten pretty dang good recently.

 

The Klits ruined the HW division.

 

The division is ok now until the next European 7'2" 300 lb steroided freak shows up and they throw heavyweights at he as a diet.

 

The heavy weights are on fire at last.have seen a young HW briedas I think he is called from one of the baltic states looks like a school boy but can really fight could be one to watch.

 

Fury is nuts will fight win or lose and wilder is chinny with a big punch add the rest of the division to the mix old and new could be very exciting.

 

80s were a good era. Very underrated. On their best night, guys like Thomas, Dokes, Weaver, Smith, ****ey, Witherspoon, Berbick, Tucker, Bruno, Tubbs, Spinks were a force to be reckoned with against anyone.

But politics/drugs ruined that era to the bone.
