    We have Wilder vs Chisora coming up in June.

    Tyson Fury has sparked a load of life to the Division.

    David Haye is back, fighting on Sky, and seems keen to get himself back in title contention.

    Vitali says he's coming Back.

    I expect big fights in the next year or so.

    Hopefully we get Wlad vs Povetkin and then vs Pulev/Fury this year too. Things are picking up this year it seems.

    I really don't like the heavyweight division and the talent is terrible, having said that...I actually like keeping tabs with Haye, Fury, Klitsx2, Wilder.

    at its max potential it can be the best division.

    Its just been so bad for ages we forget.

    Wilder and Fury seem like great characters with exciting styles

    As soon as one of the Klits falls the division will go crazy.

    True. I see so much talent, but just not enough to beat the Klits. A whole lot of fighters will get belts once the Klits leave. The Wlad/Povetkin fight is going to be one of the best fights, I'm hoping Povetkin pulls off the upset. It's a step up from Wlad/Pianata at least.

    It's threatening to get off it's arse and get back into shape but I'm gonna stay quietly confident at the moment and see how the next year or so unfolds.

    It's not just the upcoming fights, look at the number of threads in the "general".

    "Wladimir Klitschko is a disgrace."
    "Wlad is fighting Journeyman-level opposition as VOULANTRY title defences"
    "Daily Mail Claiming Wilder-Chisora is a Done Deal"
    "My mother can shatter Wlad's jaw, why did my favorite HW get whooped?"
    "Wladimir Klitscho disagrees that Floyd is the greatest. 'Ali is the greatest and it's"
    "malik scott sparring povetkin"
    "Wlad Klit ate my hamster... twice!"
    "How likely is a Wlad vs Tommy Morrison Fight?"
    "Rocky Marciano vs. Lennox Lewis"

    HW is more alive as ever. And so is the butthurt by some apparently :yep

    Since Haye announced his comeback, it's been brought back to life.

    The saviour is back.
