    I guess that's why he will not fight them.

    Thanks.

    You solved the mystery.

    I have to go and wack off.

    Zak will take over on Lewis. Don't listen to what he says about Holy. He thinks Holmes and Tyson and Foreman were still in their Primes when Holy beat him.

    Champs in the 90s - just the notable ones otherwise it would be a book

    Heavyweights - Holyfield, Lewis, Tyson, Klitschko, Bowe
    Cruiserweights - Michalczewski, Grant, Gomez
    Lgt Heavy - McCallum, Jones Jnr, Hearns, Barkley, Hill, Michalczewski, Maske
    S Middle - Barkley, Toney, Jones Jnr, Ottke, Benn, Ninn, Eubank, Collins
    Middle - Jackson, mcClellan, Hopkins
    Lt Middle - Norris, Whitaker
    Welter - Trinidad, De La Hoya, Quartey
    lt Welter - Chavez, Tsyzu, Phillips
    lightweight - Mendy, Johnson, Mosley
    S Feather - Nelson, Mayweather Jnr, Corrales, Gatti
    feather - Kelly, Hamed, Vasquez
    S Bantam - Zaragoza, Morales, Barrera, Jones
    Below - McCullough, Tapia, Carnizales, Kawashima, Pacquaio, johnson, Carbajal, Gonzalez, Arce, Lopez.

    Just some names of the champs around, some didnt have there peaks at this time and it isnt really an argument for or against, theres some good boxers from the ninetys but theres some god awful ones too - but then again you could do this at any decade and get the same results. The accumulation of belts dosnt seem to have helped any either.

    2010 is off to a good start to dethrone the '90s... hell if you remove hoya, floyd and pac (which honestly haven't been involved in any real classic fights at the top of their fame, except maybe DLH) 2000 wasn't all that hot either

    I only remember significant fights that more than 2 people watch.

    Yeah, close your eyes and laugh.

    Just like everyone laughed at MMA in the 90s.

    No-way can anyone beat a Prime boxer! :lol:

    Funny because a 46 year old Holyfield won the world title imo. Rubbish thread.

    A 46 year old B-Hop is one of the top 10 p4p fighters in the world right now. The pillac who wrote this just makes crap threads constantly to get attention. The 90's was better than the 80's and much better than the 00's.

    I agree about the 90s being a good HW decade. The 80s were **** though. No depth whatsoever.

    Funny you should say that because Wladimir seems to have been sparked out by more "bums" than Lewis. At least Lewis avenged his loses.
