Well there are always fights that COULD cure that....Arreola-Stiverne for one, but I think that's not going to happen now. I do believe Arreola will put in a solid effort vs Wladimir if/when that fight happens. Seth Mitchell also seems to me like a guy who will put forth some effort and try to win the belts rather than just sit back and take an ass whupping.
The division is more than just the Klitschko's, and by alienating the entire division HBO has really shot itself in the foot. If you're not going to show Klitschko fights due to where they happen & what time they happen, fine, but if the next Evander Holyfield or Mike Tyson is currently fighting in the US and is not getting covered....well that's just fucking stupid.
There are 2 ways a division can go in boxing....you can have complete and utter dominance or you can have constant turnover and rivalries. people can get bored of both.
