It's because your Heavyweights are just not competitive anymore. Too lazy, too fat, lack of discipline and hunger for making it big. In the 70s and 80s, the American boxing media was playing down fighters from across the Atlantic as "European level". Funny how the tables have turned. All we see in Europe coming from the US heavyweight-wise are obese, lazy, way past their best lard asses collecting a paycheck to pay their child alimony (for their 8 children) back home. Quite sad.
There are certainly 2 or 3 fights that can be made that would garner interest but the top guys need to fight each other. Whoever comes out of the Stiverne/Wilder,Jennings/Perez mess will be a big fight for Wlad.
His best win is Chisora who is awful. And he had to clinch, hold, grab, forearm, rabbit punch, wrestle, and foul Cunningham to beat him :rofl:rofl
It is full of parity right now. The competition is obviously poor because of how long Wlad has been able to reign. That PROVES that it isn't that good.
