    hell no. Size at this weight comes with a prize. It's not like matching WW with LHW.

    then all the attention would be moved on to this class and do we really want that? i mean i would rather the attention (as in the fights on danish tv) was on David Haye type fighters, than Valuev types.

    No as I said before and the reason is is that everytime boxing adds something it really loses something i.e. more belts have watered down what a world champion is, there are already too many divisions as is, safety regulations esp. the drop in length from 15 round championship fights to twelve (can you imagine how big of a non-threat DeLa Hoya would be if that never happened). No, until there is a freakishly large and talented mother ****er this ain't even up for debate. I take prime Tyson, Holyfield, Frazier, etc. etc. over these superheavyweights.

    Yes its time.

    I used to think the spectacle of watching a 6ft 7 man in there with a guy 6ft would be an interesting spectacle, while its is bizarre it does not translate to exciting fights because the guy uses his advantages and does not engage that much. Yes you know who im reffering to.

    but no offence, it is pretty stupid to built a new weight class just because you hate one fighter.....
    He will be gone in a few years...
