It's a bit difficult to gauge the current state of the division since many of the top guys don't face each other. But hopefully we will see...
The smallest guy to beat Wladimir Klitschko weighed 225 pounds and the smallest guy to beat Lennox Lewis weighed 231 pounds. Joshua's closest...
If a guy at only 220 was capable of dominating than why hasn't it happened in the last 21+ years? Its been more than 2 decades since anyone under...
Also, I don't think there are many Marciano fans that think he would be able to compete in todays division. In the 60s and 70s he would have a...
Your correct someone under 200 pounds would probably not be able to compete today but for that matter Foreman and Liston also would be unlikely to...

If people are arguing Charles was past his prime against Marciano why would they bring up loses to Johnson and Valdes that happened right before...
Charles only losses during his prime (1944-1951) are to Walcott and a highly controversial loss to Elmer Ray that many thought he won. Patterson...
I don't think Ali was past his prime in the early 70s. If we are going to say he was past his prime at such a young age than shouldn't we give...
I think it's worth pointing out that Charles seems to have been slipping by the time of the Harold Johnson and Nino Valdes fights. I don't think...
The heavyweights of Quarry's era were considerably smaller than the top heavies of later eras so were not talking about a huge size gap. There is...
H2H and accomplishments are two very different matters. While there are plenty of guys from prior eras who I would put ahead of Holyfield based...
It's also worth pointing out that in Holyfield's era it was much more common for fighters to enjoy success at advanced ages than it was in prior...
I don't see any case for Foreman being 3rd and it would be difficult to make a case for Johnson given he ducked the best opponents as champ. You...
