if Chambers can stun him, a guy like Brewster, Wlad or Peter would knock him out easily.

Brester and Peter will just stay there with a puzzled look blocking combo after combo with their heads. They do not have even close enough speed needed to score, and an occasional haymaker would not cut it.

Only Wlad is fast and strong enough to knock AP out.

lol.. the fact of the matter is that if your THAT undersized... then its not ment for you... PERIOD.

No, that's just the way it is for a man who is 6' tall, 200 lbs. standing next to a man who is 6'6, 250 lbs!

dude, chagaeve beat valuev, ruiz almost beat valuev... byrd beat vitali, byrd beat mccline, brock beat mccline... guinn beat doki, guinn beat grant

Well, Byrd only beat Vitali because Vitali sustaned an injury and couldn't continue. He had been far ahead on all the scorecards up to then. But of course there will always be exceptions to the rule. The exceptions only serve to prove the rule - and the rule is you generally don't want to engage in fisticuffs with a man who is much bigger than you are! The little fellers don't have to do that!

i could go on and on and on and on and on on small guys beating the bigger men with their abilities and spirit...

its the HEAVYWEIGHT division... if your good enough, you will compete with the other heavyweights... if you cant, then drop down (which again, is not as hard as your making it seem for a heavyweight) or just deal with it...

im sorry, im not going to feel sorry for 205lb fighters to the point of making a whole new division for them... lol.. that is ABSURD. drop to cruiser... or man up and fight.

its been done throughout history, and will continue to do so...]

As I said, it was like pulling teeth to get them to finally introduce a cruiserweight division, otherwise 176 pounders would still be expected to compete with Wlad, Valuev et al.

I say get rid of all those dumb assed "junior" and "super" and whatever they are light weight divisions and introduce some extra heavyweight divisions, at the very minimum a super-heavyweight div.
