Where did it go? I mean not that I really care, 75% of today's heavies are garbage, but seriously, it seems like months since the last decent heavyweight bout.
Peter-McCline and Holyfield-Savarese were probably the HW fights I enjoyed most this year. After that, Harrison-Sprott and Rahman-Lawrence.
The biggest names are not superstars any more.. I wish the profiles were raised more.. Where are the national superstars now... Peter , Wlad and Sultan do their best.. But why no names that ring ... No Moorers , Holyfields, Tysons, Lewiss, Bowes, That was a fond era..
Hmm why ?? Maybe cause all but one of the fighters you mentioned are yanks !!! If Klitschko was American he'd be touted as the best boxer since sliced bread !!
I don't care if Wlad was american or if he was my first cousin. He's got a glass head. He scares the current crop of heavyweight contenders... ancient has beens, chubby Russians, and other assorted mediocrities. Once in a while , he gets caught with a nervous swipe and he folds like a Polka Bands accordian. Not the best since sliced bread for sure, not even the best since sliced Keilbasa.
The second Lewis retired i ost interest. ill watch Skelton lose in january but then ill go back to ignoring the division entirely...until Haye makes a splash that is!
You are right,mate! Platov vs Danny Williams was really fun to watch.A very entertaining and exciting fight.I look forward to their rematch.
