Are you still watching the HW division?

What I like about the current HW scene, what makes me tune in

1. Hellenius, Povetkin, Arreola, Adamek - Up and comers

2. The "anything can happen" feeling of watching to big guys go at it

3. Seeing if any of the old names have an upset left in the tank.

4. Watching Vitali's awkward style and the looks on his face

5. Watching as Wlad, building on perfect technique, expands his punch repertoire and lets his hands go more and more in each fight.

6. Waiting to see who enters the scene next, because the HW division is so wide open, you can get a title shot with less than 20 fights. I wouldn't be surprised if Shaq shows up next year.

 

The HW division is dead to me. Lack of talent and excitement. The Klits are moot to me because there is nobody good in the division. It's like dominating a YMCA boxing club. (Ok, exaggeration but you know what I mean.) I just don't enjoy watching non-athletic slobs get in the ring... it just kills me. A lot of these fighters look like they failed out of fat camp, and the only reason they are a "Heavyweight Contender" is because nobody who is that big and good, actually boxes anymore. Athletic big guys are going into other sports....

If you want to watch solid boxing, the middle weights are the way to go. Good power, speed, and technical skills. I generally like watching from lightweight to light-heavyweights although I'll check out the super-feathers from time to time.

 

One the money, two the money, and three the money.

 

I think the real question of where someone stands on the HW divsion is to compare it to other divisions. SO my question is if the biggest fight in the HW division was to be made (meaning K2 and Haye come to an agreement on PPV revunue) and we had Haye vs. Wlad and then the biggest fight in say the other divisions were made (not counting Pac vs. Mayweather because that is the biggest fight in all the fight game) would you watch Haye vs. Wlad instead of say Pacquio vs. Timothy Bradley (W) or Mayweather vs. Paul Williams (JM) or Bute vs. Pascal (LH)?

 

I think the biggest HW fight would be Wlad vs. Vitali...it won't happen, but if it did, it would certainly be the biggest fight and yes, I would I watch that before any other fight, including Pac vs. Chickenweather.

 

True you are right the biggest fight would be Wlad vs. Vitali but I didn't include that fight as they have said since they are brothers they won't fight each other. Also, I think if they were to fight on the same day as a Manny won't take the test Pacquiao vs. Floyd "undefeated biggest PPV draw in the Game" Mayweather (sorry had to chickenweather yeah right) I think the K2 PPV would get destroyed in buys.

 

I watch it.
