OK, how's this...people got hella bored of paying $50 for a 1 round fight just like they get bored of the Klitschko's, they got bored of Lennox Lewis, and guess what, they'll get bored of the next guy in line too!

Where ever there is a Champion there are people that want to see them lose....the Klitschko's aren't going to lose anytime soon (unless it's a total shocker) so it sucks the drama out of the fights. It doesn't help it that the guys they fight don't show up, the Klitschko's give them rounds to get started....they want some competition as much as the fans want them tested...they can't manufacture competition they're stuck in this era.
Your right, If Lewis was around today he would be a very boring fighter. Back when Lewes was the best you had other threats like Tyson and Holyfield. But they are too old now and there is no one out there to take there places. We have a bunch of lazy heavies with no desire to be the best. Just to make as much money as possible before they get found out.
Arreola and Chisora are the only two fighters to come into the ring with the Klits and actauly tried and believed they could win. The problem was they lacked the fitness to last with the Klits. We need fit up close brawler to take them on. They dont like to fight up close but no one has the fitness or skill to keep on the inside and score from there.
The Klits do bore me though. They make fights last longer than they need to and are too cautious. I dont blame them for being cautious, it makes them money and wins them fights so its good for them, just not good for the fans to watch.
I just cant be bothered to watch them play with there food all night so they can get paid.
Klit fights I would watch would be Chisora, Helanius or Haye.
