    I'm still not reading a goddamn thing you write. The only reason you wrote it is because I called you names....like a middle schooler. You're not a man, you're not worth reading. You're another little *****. This forum is lousy with them.

    I don't care what words you use to describe it. You threw a little fit because you didn't like the lack of acknowledgment, then when i give it to you in words you can't possibly twist around you tell me the conversation is over until curse at you like a juvenile.

    What happened is I went down to your level and got the response I wanted from the beginning. Put that in whatever word play you like, you are still a little ***** not worth engaging like a grown ass man.

    Went down to your level and got what I wanted. Spin it in whatever words make your ***** its least dried and cracked it doesn't change what happened, it doesn't change what you are.

    I would say that with the stronger cruiser weight divisions, there has only really been one or two active heavyweights that they needed protecting from.

    For example take away the Klitschko's, and you might as well have thrown Haye, Adamek, Huck, Cunningham et al against the top heavyweights.

    Precisely. I believe if the cruiserweight division was correctly called heavyweight and heavyweight, as we know it now, was correctly called Superheavyweight (as it is in the Amateurs) it would give the 200lb division champions the prestige they deserve in that they would be regarded as a smaller type of heavyweight to differentiate between a Superheavyweight division.

    Since Heavyweight has been taken over by Superheavyweights and cruiserweight has been taken over by heavyweights they should officially change the name of the top two divisions.

    This way when the Superheavyweights are bad fans can say “least we still have heavyweights” which sounds a whole lot better than saying “at least we still have cruiserweight”
