Do you think the heavyweight champions today are bums?

Question

when i watch the russians box i fall asleep thats sad

Answer 1

h**l yeah

Answer 2

their too heavy now a days now energy just meat and all lazy I agreee i fall asleep too

Answer 3

in any other era they would just be fringe contenders, they just have to many flaws, klitchko is chinny and hesistant to take the fight to his opponent,  ibragimov is a complete wast of time, sam peter dosnet train hard enough, has no stamina, chageav is all talk but faces no good opponents, valuev is just to big to be a boxer, it isnt all about size, he should of been a football player, all that matters in football is how big you are, and maskeav is a complete waste of time

Answer 4

My main frustration with the heavy weight division is that none of the fighters seems willing to unify the title, we have like three different champions and no one seems to be really interested in unifying the title and truly dominate the division, I hate that, in the past when a fighter was coming up he would try and unify the titles and be the undisputed champ but what we have now is slow boxers that seem happy with just one title, Klischko is slow and basically relies on size and jab, Peters is strong but slow as a tractor and Chagaev.....he is just boring. We need someone willing to make the extra effort and unify the heavy weight title, like Ace man said, I think david Haye is going to make the division interesting, he is faster and seems a lot more determined to unify the division like he did at cruiserweight, I think if he adds a little more weight and doesn't loose too much speed he could be a serious contender for the undisputed title, let us hope the heavy weight division will come out this slump soon.

Answer 5

I have got to say yes to the falling asleep bit but as for being bums i would disagree. They are not up to the quality of previous Heavyweight divisions but they are still the best out there which is no mean feat.

Answer 6

''Dr. Lamehammer'' is just that, a poke and run fighter now and he is suppose to be the best????

Sam Peter even though he has power looked like a double stuft Oreo with legs when he won his ''title''.

Changeav,Valuev,Ibrigimov=ZZZZZZZ

Now Vitali wants a shot at Peter because of a ''clause'' in his retirement. That will be great, if he wins we have the Klitschko brothers as champs and they wont fight eachother!

Watching Wladimir fight is like having my teeth pulled without novacaine.

But David Haye could make things interesting, if he fought Wlad the first one to land a bomb wins.

And Povetkin might be the real deal but yes I think the heavyweights are boring and the division is in baaaaaaaaad shape.

Answer 7

kind of, i'd like to see samuel peter and wladmir klitschko fight though, they are okay champions.

Answer 8

Yes.Their low pay packets pretty much settle it.For the first time in history they are not making the most money of all divisions.

It comes down to simple numbers, there are very few heavyweights competing anymore, so the field lacks depth.

The reason, once upon boxing was the main past time for young men, and the only way out for poorer people.

Now there are a lot of easier sports options for big guys. The world's five different styles of football, body building, olympic field events, powerlifting, WWF even just working out in the gym for fun, all take a lot of numbers away from what would have been aspiring heavyweights.
