    If I could I would... Bit early in his career to tell, but he's fighting Toney. :D

    Has anyone considered a big lightheavy like Dawson might move up? I would say the faster more skilled smallish Heavies take back over when the Bros. are gone.

    How was his amateur career? He's only 18 and already pro.

    Yeah, I think Chambers will be one of the leading HWs when the Klitschkos are retired (unless the beating he took from Wlad ruined him). Dawson may move up when the Klitschkos retire too and have some success, depends how the HW landscape shapes by then. But really, the only big (in size) prospect coming up is Helenius, the rest like Pulev, Boytsov and the like are more of a normal size.

    Yep, might be possible. But that brings me to my other nightmare (besides some McDonalds and Burger King sponsored HW's) the moving, outpointing kind. Where you get 12 round point decisions in every titlefight because the boxers don't have enough 'pop' to KO or at least stop their opponent.

    This is just sad.

    Watch it be 2019.....Wlad and Vitali will now be in their 40's and jabbing to death some fat american heavyweight or some euro guy with a last name we can't pronounce.......While David Haye will be going on the 10th year of his "break".

    Heavyweight division looks hopeless.
