Thread: Size Limit on Heavyweights?

Should there be a size limit on heavyweights because it is getting silly now with valuev he has a ridiculas advantage that would not be possible in any other division plus he cant box yet he is a top heavyweight purly because of his size alot of great champions from the past would lose to this guy because he is to big to hit not because he is better

Thats what makes it exciting for me , Cruiser was invented for this reason ,

I don't think there should be a weight limit in the heavies, but I do think the cruiserweight division should be bumped up again. Somewhere between 208 and 210 should be the cruiser weight limit. I believe there is a helluva lot of talent out there around this weight but simply because they can only get a guy who ways 220 and stand's over 6'3 anymore.

The heavyweight division is hardly exciting at the moment it was great a few years ago but it is just big slow akward fat men who cannot box now and good fighter are getting beaten because a guy has a 100lb advantage thats not fair at all i am 245lbs 5 11 and i have to try to become a cruiser now because i am to small, i mean when did 245lbs become small?

In his heyday Mike Tyson was 5'11 and fought at 216 lbs. Is there any doubt that Tyson would mop the floor with Valuev?

No dought but if you think about it tyson would have to jump to hit him

We have a Super Cruiserweight division in Australia which is 86kg to 95kg. you guys will have to figure out what that is in lbs.
