    Promoters...there's another interesting thing to consider Don King used to run the heavyweight division up until recently. Golden Boy and Bob Arum haven't really defeated him, but the Europeans have.

    Universum
    K2
    Sauerland
    Frank Warren
    Hayemaker

    Those guys have the heavyweights and what do they know or care about winning over the American fans?

    Speaking of King you know what might do well, a return of those Cedric Kushner like "Heavyweight Explosion" cards. They were never massive..but frequent with alot of the guys riding huge exposure then. No, they have the ball in there court and THE champions and you would only hope U.S heavys are using the time to build and knock down the doors for exposure. Scott gets a push then gets shipped out to lose, Jennings is active and impressive but might as well be on a milk carton, Seth Mi...anyway, Arreola got the top but it fell on him, Wilder...I just get the feeling they are 'done' building him and are really just waiting for the brothers to retire or vacate, Andy Ruiz can fight a bit but gets laughed at. I mean ffs we still have Antonio Tarver though and he'll be featured on the next GBP card with Luis Ortiz and may be lined up to be HIS next foil.

    American heavyweights should fight other American heavyweights and build themselves up that way. Jennings is close to contender status. If Jennings fights Arreola or someone he might be ready.
