What is your favorite weight class?

I think having a cruiserweight division is needed with the size of heavyweights today.

If push came to shove I would reluctantly allow cruiser to stay if the other 8 original divisions could be established once again. I can see the logic & to be fair it has had a bad rap but has been a good division recently.

As crazy as it sounds a super heavyweight division could also be created in the professional ranks.

If that happens then my following boxing goes down the

WBC, IBF & WBO were supposed to be discussing this, a step too far for me. Followed the sport for 30 years but it would be no more boxing in my house if this comes to fruition, I feel that strongly about it. There's already 17 divisions & some are just 3 or 4 pounds between them, they are fucking pointless!

Anything below heavyweight and I'll tell you why:




1. With the no upper weight limit, you can have the 40-50 pound differences like you had for the Fury-Cunningham fight.

2. It lends itself to fat, blubbery, out-of-shape fighters who are just banking on landing a haymaker and strike it rich.

3. Save for a few exceptions, heavyweights are devoid of most boxing skills. Defense, foot movement, ring generalship, variety of punches, good looking flurries...... all that shit goes out the window when you have some of these behemoths fighting.

4. The quality of fighters has been atrocious for the last several years, and counting. There's Wlad..... and then there's a garbage pail of disappointments, has-beens, woefully inactive, oft-injured, and never-will-be's. It's quite sad.

5. It's the one division where 50-year old retirees think they can somehow come back and cash in on one more payday. Just slap on the ol' false teeth and drive me to the gym.

6. There's more......

I agree about super heavy but the cruiserweight limit may need to go up even more.
