I honestly think it's the shock factor of two brothers absolutely dominating the most prestigious weight class in all of boxing for so long. Think about it... The odds of two siblings doing this is so low that people look to rationalize it. They don't realize it but they think along the lines of "if two people from the same family can dominate the HW division, the division must be lacking depth". We play the division down because we don't want to accept the fact that two brothers from Ukraine could do this to a division that used to make American boxers into Gods. Because of this mindset, there is nothing that can be done other than look at the HW division with immense bias.
uh no, the division is just complete **** except for the 2 brothers. Most of the division is out of shape and the skill level is awful.
