    That's a separate argument. If you're making the case SHWs are generally less athletic and aesthetic I would tend to agree with you, apart from the odd exceptions. But despite this: size, weight, power and reach will negate the advantages of smaller men who in the past would have been HWs but, because of the evolution (of man and the sport), now reside in a still relatively new division created to fill the void left by the fact that SHW have taken over the HW scene. Nothing and no one will reverse that trend, save for a once-in-a-generation talent temporarily breaking the mold. But yeah, I agree, many of them are big lumps with little talent, which of course, further supports the argument that physicality trumps all other factors, most of the time.

    i reckon he's hoping they legalize Euthanasia in his country more.. seeing as though his persona is that of a bitter, depressed, racist, jealous 100% victim and loser.

    From the moment Foreman won the title 40 plus years ago most heavyweight champions have been between 6'3 and 6'6. Only Tyson was short but his weight of 220 was the exact same weight Wlad weighed when he turned pro and before he started using PED's.

    The term super heavyweight always cracked me up. One stupid person on TV makes the comment and then people at home will repeat it. In fact I can name 50 heavyweights from just the 70's who were 6'3 to 6'6 or some times even taller.

    Just because Wlad is 6'6 and had the title for 10 years fighting third rate hack fighters people assume no guy under 6'6 could beat him. Which is funny because each of the guys who knocked him out and knocked him down were under 6'6.

    Your welcome to your opinion, it's just not supported by fact and will never actually come to pass. The ring top ten list has been getting progressively taller and taller and heavier and heavier over the years. That's not going to change.

    Once you're at 200+ you're packing a punch that can pretty much knockout any heavyweight regardless of size.

    Do they measure or weigh them before a fight? SHW is really referring to the overall size more than merely height. It's an entirely appropriate term...

    Go back to Traditional Eight Divisions. But keep the cruiser weight division.

    Change the cruiser weight division to a 220lb weight limit, change the name to Heavy weight division and make the people over that super heavy's.


    But more important....One Belt only.

    becasue boxing being a cardio sport, the bigger man requires bigger payloads from his heart, but the heart being bigger doesnt solve that problem, it only increases the problem due to a bigger heart having a smaller loading capacity.

    Increasingly bigger men are fcuked over bigtime.
