If today's HW division is so crappy, then why can't the 90s fighters win a belt?

    a lot of young cats out there, boytsov, perez, price, szpilka, mitchell. with the right development and matchmaking, they could blossom. i am very happy with the future for this division

    This is probably the dumbest thread ever.

    To your question, didn't Holyfield deserve to get the nod in the Valuev fight?

    Good question. Holyfield has been in a several title fights over the past decade but wasn't able to convert. Why he couldn't do it?

    He beat Valuev, ***. It's hardly his fault he got robbed blind in Germany by crooked judges.

    first of all, the Holyfield-Valuev fight was the worst HW fight I ever saw. ever.
    Valuev is super slow and all Holyfield did is run away. Valuev is a John Ruiz type of world champion, a top 150 HW.
    so concentrate on Holyfields other fights .and nobody said Valuev is a world beater.

    Maybe the 80's and 70's were SO good, that no era could compete. I bet theres some people that think Foreman and Holmes could come back now and clean up the division. Maybe the ruler from the 90's, Lewis, should put his pockets back in and come back for boxing and not 100 million dollars, the cheap money grabbing arrogant dickhead, and see what he could do against these fighters from 2012.
