    A superheavyweight division?

    Why not just call it the Big Fat **** and Nicholai Valuev division and sto trying to cover it up.

    There is no need for a Superheavyweight divison.

    They better try to stop corruption in boxing, unfair Hometown division etc.

    On a realer note, I'm beginning to think they should consider combining the MW and SMW levels. The talent level at MW (the bigger money division) is absolutely awful and most of the top MWs have resigned to fighting at SMW anyways. Combining the divisions would go a long ways to saving the MW division seeing as how it's on its last legs right now.

    SuperHeavyweight is ******ed and will fail miserably if introduced.

    No one here can even agree on what weight it should be and the only recent champion who couldn't make 230 would be Valuev, and he just got beat by an ex-cruiserweight anyway.

    Cruiserweight needs to be reduced. Either back to the original 190pounds or even 195.

    Why do you actually need 'sanctioning organisations'?

    The only people needed to 'sanction' the fight are the two guys themselves, and a world governing body - something the sport currently lacks.

    The respective commissions and boards of control throughout the world could get together quite easily and come up with a unified set of rules and procedures - and form a governing body.

    TV is a bonus.

    Agreed. 190 lbs. for Cruiserweight and anything above is heavyweight.

    thats the point its supposed to fail miserable let it we dont need these big giant *******s there ****. the eastern europeans can can hav it all to themselves. and we can have the real heavyweights small fit athletic fast powerful entertaining.

    its not really hard to understand why the heavyweight division is so **** these days its because the size standard has gone up
