    Default Re: Super heavy? Super stupid

    No Super-Heavyweight division is needed, absolutely NOT, and Jose Sulaiman has been one of the most cursed scourges to Boxing in history.

    Why has 5'9" fat, old, blown up middleweight James Toney without heavyweight power been able to successfully compete with modern Heavyweights?

    How did 6', feather-fisted, blown up 168 pounder Chris Byrd become a Heavyweight title holder in the New Millennium ?

    Who gave 6'5" 244 lb Lennox Lewis his toughest fights?
    Rahman and McCall aren't giants.
    6'2" Holyfield was a natural 188 pounder who bulked up to about 215.

    Ruslan's only 6'1"
    Sultan Ibragimov is usually below 220 lbs.

    David Haye is 215.


    Size is only an advantage to the point where it compromises speed, athleticism, and endurance.

    A lot of these 244 lbs Heavyweights these days carry a helluva lot of fat into the ring with them too; if they actually trained that fat off the way fighters in other weight-classes do, almost all of these guys would be in the 205 to 225 lbs range.



    It p!$$es me off to see dead-heads like these sanctioning bodies getting together to further damage boxing in their transparent effort to make a few extra dollars.



    EDIT:
    Let's also not forget another aging former middleweight champ, 5'11" Roy Jones, successfully taking a Heavyweight title in the modern era.
