The Klitschko brothers will be sorely missed in 10 years time

When they are gone I might start watching the heavies again . . . oh wait . . . the rest are 10x worse then the bros and about as exciting! ****

 

:deal

its not Wlad or Vitali's fault its a **** era.

but for god sake don't pretend this is actually a great or even average era in heavyweight boxing

I don't care if people are coming in weighing 250 pounds. These guys are coming in FAT, overweight, NO stamina, no real technical skill. These are things you can tell within a minute of watching them fight. As observers.

This. Is. A. ****. Era. For. Heavyweight. Boxing. :thumbsup

 

The Klitschko's have been feasting on the corpses of 90's Heavyweights, fat bums and blown up Cruiserweights. In 10 years time that is how they'll be remembered, excellent fighters and dominant champions in the worst era for decades and decades.

 

You're clueless :-(

Yes, they are bad for the sport & the sooner they leave the better, I hope you can find a job elsewhere after they retire.

Vitali goes into Politics & Wlad moves to San Fransisco

 

:deal

 

alright, tell me in what way this era is not ****.

Seriously now. No trolling no hating. I will read your response with an open mind

 

hmm.
you make some good points

 

...He was being quite reasonable, please explain how this isn't a terrible era?

 

Very good fighters but I just want to see stiffer tests for them. Not everyone they fight are bums but if the most memorable thing about them is a loss(Vitali to Lewis, TKO 6) then that's a problem. They're not even the best fighters PFP and I'm not sure if they ever were. Wish them well in retirement but the hvy division is a bore now. Don't know what I'd do if it wasn't for me looking at old fights, keeps the fire in boxing in me through this soft era.

 

True. Bad era for boxing now period. We're in a time when we applaud fighters for taking a challenge and treat them like holy figures when they do. That's sad. So-called champs can fight our neighbors and we're suppose to just go with it and consider them great anyways? **** that and fuk hype.

 

:yep

 

As great an era as the 90's were (I loved that time frame for boxing), I remember when it was happening that the critics were ragging about it non stop which I never understood. At the time there was a lot of talk about how Holyfield was just a blown up cruiserweight and how it was a joke that"fat old" George Foreman could win a title etc....All the young fighters of that time were not given the credit they're given now....It just seems like the way it is in boxing....No one cares about or gives credit to the current era until some time has gone by. I prefer to just enjoy my favorite sport and while I really wish the fighters today fought amongst each other far more often and sought after the glory, it just ain't happening right now but I do think there's a lot of young talent on the horizon right now and I could see this up coming era as being a lot like what we all enjoyed in the 90's....The division just needs way better coverage of the up and comers which is what we used to get back in the day.

 

Larry Holmes era was utter terrible, Larry Holmes must be **** like the Klits

Rocky Marciano's era was terrible, with Rocky feasting only on hot dog vendors and a few old, washed up champs and blown up LHW's, Marciano must be **** too

Joe Louis era was so bad that most of his title reign consisted of jokers from the so called "Bum of The Month Club", Joe Louis must be total ****

If a HW didn't fight in the 70's or 90's then he fought in a shitty era, period, that includes prime Mike Tyson (1985-1989), Tyson = overrated garbage too. FACT
