    Based on past history we are long overdue for the next utterly dominant force at Heavyweight. We know the drill, inspires fear and quaking into opponents as well the common perception of invincibility. Batton down the hatches, he cannot be too far away.

    You basically told me the good old Quassy was brighter than the brightest star, so what else was i to use

    Soon enough there could a monster who's a mix of Lewis and Tyson (the 9.00pm version) and Ali. He'll be about 6'4/6'5 and weigh 230/40 pouinds of pure muscle and strength, lightening speed, great jab, etc, he'll have 60 fights and win 'em all by KO...and still some mugs will still go around saying "Jack Dempsey could beat him".

    None of that would surprise me. I certainly know one that will find a perfect foil for him pre 50's :lol:

    we will see when this amazing combo of Lewis and Ali appears

    Face the facts, it's not impossible for another great fighter to come along soon, but atleast in the nation who has produced most great heavyweights, boxing has become less popular.

    so what ur saying is a great 5ft 10 fighter like a prime Tyson for example would not be able to dominate today;s amazing weight class?

    exactly, these heavies today are amazing. There is no way that someone like Tyson or Frazier would be able to dominate todat, they'd get crushed by these giant heavyweights

    Even if he is exactly as you describe then Jack Dempsey would still potentialy be able to beat him.

    Unless he is armour plated of course.

    You're absolutely correct. The said fighter could have a heart attack VERY early into the bout and drop prone. Otherwise she's another Fireman job.

    What are the specifics you guys think a HW would need to dominate the division for say, 8 years...what are the key components the next quasar needs.
